All Tandberg Data tape drives are tested, inspected, and carefully packaged at

the factory. However, because shipping damage can occur, you should follow

the steps below to unpack the tape drive:

1.

Visually inspect the shipping container and notify your freight carrier

immediately if you see any damage.

2.

Place the shipping container on a flat, clean, stable surface. If parts are

missing or the equipment is damaged, notify your supplier or Tandberg

Data.

3.

Save the original shipping container and packaging materials in case you

need to reship the tape drive.
