When returning to us material considered
by you to be defective, please
imperatively tell us in some detail what
the problem is. What does not function? How did this manifest? Did it
happen right from assembly on or later after some time of run? Sentences
such as "does not work" are absolutely useless!
Experience shows that most returned materials are perfectly OK. You can
save time and effort for yourself and us by contacting us before you send
something back. Often the problem can be solved by communication, but
surely not with sentences like "does not work".

When communicationg as a fitment problem with some newly delivered
system please see what we need to know other than the 3 words "does
not fit"
