Return of equipment and warranty

Before returning a material under warranty, a detailed request must be made in advance by email to: retour@passion-radio.com.

Any material sent without agreement will be refused and returned to the sender.

For a quick handling, any warranty request must answer the following questions and indicate your order or invoice number:

1 - What is the precise nature of the problem encountered, how, where and when did it happen?
2 - Has there been a recent change in the installation and/or configuration?
3 - How is the equipment installed and used (attach a photo and/or video*)
4 - What tests, measures and solutions have been tried to correct the problem?
5 - If relevant: On which frequencies and/or modulation modes does the problem appear?

* To send a video file that would be too heavy by email, you can use this free service: https://www.grosfichiers.com/en/

The more precise a request is, with explanation, photo or video, the faster the treatment is adapted to the situation, because in 9 cases out of 10 of declared "breakdowns", it is very often a problem of installation, configuration and/or use and does not fall under the warranty.
