Return to Depot - Maintenance Procedure 
 
In the event of a suspected problem with 3M equipment: 
 
Diagnose
 
The end user system manager will ascertain that there is an actual 
fault with the equipment that cannot be rectified with the use of the 
applicable User Guide or local in-house knowledge. 
 
Initiate Call
 
The end user system manager should contact GTS through one of 
the following communications mediums: phone, fax, or email. A 
detailed description of the problem along with the serial number of 
the unit will be requested. It is THE CUSTOMER’s responsibility 
to include or have on hand all pertinent information. 
 
Response/Call Back
 
A GTS representative will discuss with the end user system 
manager to ascertain the nature of the problem. If the problem can 
be rectified locally by the end user system manager with the 
guidance of the GTS representative, no further action will be 
required. 
 
Return Authorization
 
If the problem cannot be rectified using telephone assistance, the 
GTS representative will issue a Return Materials Authorization 
(RMA) number which will be used to track the failed reader, along 
with verification of the location of the service depot to where it 
should be sent. 
The RMA number should be prominently displayed on the 
shipping container in which the reader is being returned. This 
reference number will ensure prompt processing of the equipment 
once it arrives at 3M. 
 
Return
 
The end user system manager will carefully disconnect the 
defective equipment. The reader should ideally be packaged in its 
original packing box.  If not, a suitable box with sufficient packing 
material should be used to minimize damage during transit. The 
CUSTOMER is responsible for insurance coverage on the reader 
during transit to 3M in case of loss or damage. The reader should 
then be returned to the 3M designated service depot.
