Checking for packaging and content damage 

Thoroughly  inspect  the  exterior  of  the  shipping  box  for  any  sign  of  damage  or 
tampering. Should any damage be noted, please notify the carrier immediately.   If the 
content  box  has  been  damaged  during  transportation,  the  instrument  should  be 
checked  for  any  electrical  or  mechanical  defects.    Should  any  defects  be  identified, 
please  contact  the  responsible  dealer.    Keep  all  original  packaging  to  facilitate  any 
insurance claims against the damages. 

PLEASE KEEP ALL ORIGINAL PACKAGING FOR FUTURE USE!
