RECEIVING AND INSPECTION
The Body Comp Scale has been thoroughly inspected and tested at the factory prior to shipment
and should be operational when received. However, an inspection should be performed to
determine if any damage has occurred during shipment. If shipping carton damage is apparent
when received, the carrier agent should
be present when the unit is unpacked. If unit damage is
noted when unpacked, the carrier agent must authorize repairs prior to returning it to the factory.
Although the unit may appear undamaged externally, internal damage may have occurred that
may not be evident until operated. If the unit fails to operate, notify the carrier agent, and
Valhalla Scientific to obtain a return authorization number. Retain the shipping carton for carrier
inspection. DO NOT return the unit to the Valhalla Scientific factory before an authorization
number has been obtained.
