IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH A VIKING PRODUCT, PLEASE CONTACT: VIKING TECHNICAL SUPPORT AT (715) 386-8666

Our Technical Support Department is available for assistance Monday through Friday 8am - 5pm central time. So that we can give you better service, before you call please:

1.

Know the model number, the serial number and what software version you have (see serial label).

2. 

Have your Technical Practice in front of you.

3. 

It is best if you are on site.

RETURNING PRODUCT FOR EXCHANGE

The following procedure is for equipment that has failed out-of-box (within 10 days of purchase):
1.  

Customer must contact Viking’s Technical Support at 715-386-8666 to determine possible causes for the problem. The 

customer MUST be able to step through recommended tests for diagnosis.

2. 

If the Technical Support Product Specialist determines that the equipment is defective based on the customer's input 

and troubleshooting, a Return Authorization (R.A.) number will be issued. This number is valid for fourteen (14) 
calendar days from the date of issue.

3. 

After obtaining the R.A. number, return the approved equipment to your distributor, referencing the R.A. number. Your 

distributor will then replace the product over the counter at no charge. The distributor will then return the product to 
Viking using the same R.A. number.

4.  The distributor will NOT exchange this product without first obtaining the R.A. number from you. If you haven't 

followed the steps listed in 1, 2 and 3, be aware that you will have to pay a restocking charge.

The following procedure is for equipment that needs repair:
1. 

Customer must contact Viking's Technical Support Department at 715-386-8666 to obtain a Return Authorization (RA) 

number. The customer MUST have a complete description of the problem, with all pertinent information regarding the 
defect, such as options set, conditions, symptoms, methods to duplicate problem, frequency of failure, etc.

2. 

Packing: Return equipment in original box or in proper packing so that damage will not occur while in transit. Static 

sensitive equipment such as a circuit board should be in an anti-static bag, sandwiched between foam and individual-
ly boxed. All equipment should be wrapped to avoid packing material lodging in or sticking to the equipment. Include 
ALL parts of the equipment. C.O.D. or freight collect shipments cannot be accepted. Ship cartons prepaid to:
