If you cannot get your P/DD-1500 to operate properly after referring to the troubleshooting guide, call
your Parasound dealer or Parasound Technical Service. We may be able to suggest other diagnostic tests
you can easily perform. If we determine that your P/DD-1500 should be returned to Parasound or an
Authorized Parasound Warranty Center for inspection and possible servicing, call us for the phone
number and location of a warranty center near you. If you choose to send it to Parasound, contact us to
obtain a Return Authorization (RA) number. You will be asked to repack the unit in its original
packaging plus the additional outer box for protection during transit. The Return Authorization number
must be clearly marked on the outer carton only.  You should ship the unit by UPS with adequate
insurance. You must also include a copy of your purchase receipt to verify your ownership and purchase
date.

Units that arrive without your specific Return Authorization number, without a suitable shipping carton
or evidence of improper internal packing must be refused. We do not accept collect shipments.  After
repair under warranty, the unit will be returned to you via prepaid UPS. In the case of an out of warranty
repair, contact us and we will advise you of the repair and shipping charges before you ship the unit to
us. The same packaging and RA number requirements apply.
