Service Under Warranty
During the warranty period, defective units will be
repaired without charge to the purchaser when returned
with a dated store receipt to the address below. Units
returned without a dated store receipt will be
handled as described in section
“Service Out Of Warranty.”
Due to the specialized equipment necessary for testing
a Laser-Radar receiver, there are no authorized service
stations for Whistler brand detectors other than Whistler.
When returning a unit for service under warranty,
please follow these instructions:
1.
Ship the unit in the original carton or in a suitable
sturdy equivalent, fully insured, with return
receipt requested to:
Whistler Repair Dept.
1201 North Dixieland Rd
Rogers, AR. 72756
Please allow 3 weeks turnaround time.
Important: Whistler will not assume responsibility
for loss or damage incurred in shipping. Therefore,
please ship your unit insured with return receipt
requested. CODs will not be accepted!
2.
Include with your unit the following information,
clearly printed:
• Your name and street address (for shipping via
UPS), a daytime telephone number and an
email address, if applicable.
• A detailed description of the problem (e.g., “Unit
