2.1 Packing/unpacking
Inspect the shipping container for evidence of damage immediately after receipt. If the
shipping container or cushioning material is damaged, it should be kept until the
contents of the shipment have been checked for completeness and the units have
been checked mechanically and electrically.
The shipping container should be placed upright and opened from the top. Remove
the cushioning material and lift out the contents. The contents of the shipment should
be checked against the packing list. If the contents are incomplete, if there is
mechanical damage or defect, or if the units do not perform correctly when unpacked,
notify your Thomson Broadcast and Media Solutions sales or service centre within eight
days. If the shipping container shows signs of damage or stress, notify the carrier as
well.
