Guardian Product Return 
Guardian products have been quality tested and are in full working order when shipped from 
the factory, given the rugged nature of these products, shipping is not expected to damage a 
unit. In the unlikely event of a malfunction, Guardian follows the three step procedure below. 
Step I - On-Site Correction 
• 
The most common source of difficulties with a new product is improper installation in one of 
two ways: incorrect wiring connections or connection to an incorrect power source. 
• 
Product wiring needs to be properly connected to the on-site wiring. Correct wiring 
instructions are shown in the user manual included with the product. 
• 
Connecting a telephone to a standard power source, rather than tip & ring, will blow the 
telephone’s internal, user-replaceable fuse. In the event of fuse burn-out, disconnect the 
telephone from the power source, replace the fuse, and reconnect following the wiring 
diagrams provided with the product. 
Step II - Return Materials Authorization (RMA) 
• 
When a product has been installed following user manual instructions, and the unit fails to 
operate, the user must contact Guardian Telecom to obtain authorization to return the 
product.  This can be done by completing a RMA form online at 
www.guardiantelecom.com, or by calling the service telephone number given in this 
manual. 
• 
After providing information on the product, the owner and the nature of the problem, 
Guardian will issue a RMA number, to be shown on documentation returned with the 
product. 
• 
In addition to the RMA number, shipping documents should include name, address and 
telephone number of the owner along with contact information for the person responsible 
for the repair and/or the user who identified the malfunction. 
• 
(Where a product is being returned for repair from outside of Canada, customs 
documentation must show the product’s serial number, date of export [date of purchase], 
and a notation that the equipment is: “Canadian goods returning.”) 
Step III - Factory Authorized Service 
• 
Once received, each product is carefully inspected and tested. If the product is under 
warranty, repairs are completed and the product returned to the owner, generally within 
five working days of receipt by the factory. 
• 
A product that has been subjected to misuse, neglect or accident or is beyond the warranty 
period will be evaluated. The service department will provide the owner’s representative 
with a repair cost estimate. Once approved, repairs are completed and the product 
returned, generally within five working days.
