Thank you for your investment in the Califone AV Tutor™ & its supporting supplemental reading programs. It has been 
designed for beginning readers and those who are below grade in ELD/ESL applications.

This program does more to enhance classroom curriculum, speech-language therapies, & ELD/ESL applications than ever 
before! With a form function that’s already familiar to many kids, the AV Tutor will be a popular learning destination within 
your classroom. This digital upgrade offers a more convenient way for students to learn today, but is based on our teacher-
tested popular card programs which help students connect what they see with what they hear… played back with the 
sound clarity and consistency only digital recordings can provide. 

I invite you to visit our website and register your AV Tutor for its one year warranty coverage. While you are there please visit 
other sections to learn more about our complete line of portable and installed wired and wireless PA systems, multimedia 
players and recorders, wired and wireless headphones and headsets, computer peripherals and other Califone products.

Sincerely,

Roscoe Anthony

President, Califone® International, Inc.

Warranty Registration 

The warranty for the AV Tutor™ specifically covers use 

in  schools,  churches  and  early  childhood  daycare 

centers,  unlike  consumer  electronic  products.  This 

is critical to help avoid lost class time due to “down” 

equipment and helps stretch budgets.

It  is  built  to  the  same  standards  as  the  rest  of  our 

products which teachers and other presenters rely on 

day in and day out. Califone warrants this product to 

be free from defective material and workmanship for one 

year from the purchase date. Our “Project Intercept” 

Customer Satisfaction program will replace defective 

parts and repair malfunctioning products under this 

warranty when the defect occurs under normal use, 

provided the unit is returned to our factory via pre-

paid transportation only after the factory issues an 

RA  (Return  Authorization)  number  which  must  be 

clearly written on the outside of the box.

Unpacking your AV Tutor™

Check unit carefully for damage that may have occurred 

during transit. Each AV Tutor™ is carefully inspected 

at the factory and packed in a special carton for safe 

transport.
