Our recommendation:
Before returning a radio, please call first your distributor or the service hotline.
Our experience shows that many smaller problems can be cleared already by a simple
phone call with our service hotline.
If returning will be necessary, the hotline can also tell you the nearest service partner
address and discuss with you the fastest way to get your radio repaired.
