Freight Charges 5
Returned product must be sent to Quantum with the freight charges 
prepaid, whether the product is in- or out-of-warranty. Replacement and 
repaired products will be shipped freight prepaid by Quantum. 
International Requirements 5
Import/Export Controls
 – Equipment may not be serviced by Quantum 
Corporation if there is reason to believe that the equipment was exported 
or re-exported in violation of the United States or international export 
regulations. In addition, no product will be replaced for which a 
validated license cannot be produced when requested by Quantum.
Third Party Returns
 – If a party outside of the United States wishes to return 
a product for repair to a Quantum Service Center, and the party is not the 
original buyer, Quantum must ensure compliance with all governmental 
import and export regulations. The party should initially contact the 
appropriate local service center (see Customer Support
 on page xxiv).
For international returns to the U.S., the original, validated U.S. Export 
authorization or license is required if the party requesting the return is 
not the original buyer. Returns to other country's service centers must 
conform to that country's regulations.
Customs invoices for all returns should clearly state the reason for the 
return, the value of the merchandise and an attachment of serial number 
information, when available.
Repair Process 5 All work is performed under controlled conditions and all handling of 
the product is done in accordance with electrostatic discharge (ESD) 
controls. Each repaired product is tested and verified against original 
manufacturing specifications. Configuration and firmware are upgraded 
to the latest applicable released revision.
