MACKIE S500
Manual de Usuario

Have your loudspeaker�s serial number ready. You must have an RA number before you can obtain service at the factory or an authorized service center. 2. Keep this owner�s manual. We don�t need it to repair the loudspeaker. 3. Pack the loudspeaker in its original package, including protective wrap, endcaps, and box. This is very important. When you call for the RA number, please let Tech Support know if you need new packaging. Mackie is not responsible for any damage that occurs due to non-factory packaging. 4. Include a legible note stating your name, shipping address (no P.O. boxes), daytime phone number, RA number, and a detailed description of the problem, including how we can duplicate it. 5. Write the RA number in BIG PRINT on top of the box. 6. Ship the loudspeaker to us. We recommend United Parcel Service (UPS). We suggest insurance for all forms of cartage. Ship to this address: Mackie Designs SERVICE DEPARTMENT 16140 Wood-Red Rd. NE, Ste.5 Woodinville, WA 98072 7. We�ll try to fix the loudspeaker within three business days. Ask Tech Support for the latest turnaround times when you call for your RA number. We normally send everything back prepaid using UPS BLUE (Second Day Air). However, if you rush your monitor to us by Next Day Air, we�ll treat it in kind by shipping it back to you UPS RED (Next Day Air). This paragraph does not necessarily apply to non-warranty service.
