curred during transportation. This could result in a malfunction.
• Submit claims for any transport damage immediately, and inform the Phoenix Contact
or your supplier as well as the shipping company without delay.
• Enclose photos which clearly document the damage to the packaging and/or delivery
together with your claim.
• Immediately after delivery, refer to the delivery note to check the completeness of the
contents of the packaging.
