4. Write the assigned SR Number clearly on the OUTSIDE of the correct unit's shipping carton ( do not place stickers on the unit cabinet). For multiple units, write the correct SR number on the outside of each carton. Please ship separately or include printout of the returned information from Thomson that includes the SR numbers. |
