Inspecting for Damage
After you verify that all of the equipment is included, carefully examine the assemblies, cards, modules,
and cables for any damage resulting from shipping. If you suspect any damage from shipping, contact
your local freight carrier for procedures on damage claims.
If you observe any physical defects in the items you ordered, obtain standard warranty service by
delivering the defective part, accompanied by a copy of the dated proof-of-purchase, to the
Cisco
Systems Corporate Service Center or an authorized Cisco Systems service center during the
applicable warranty period. Contact the Cisco TAC for the location of your nearest service center.
See the back of the title page for the Cisco Systems warranty information for hardware and
software
products.
