b. Installing your appliances. If you purchased a service contract, installation is included for washer, dryer, dishwasher, refrigerator, freezer, oven, and stovetop only. To arrange installation and to get more detailed information about preparation of site, call the designated service company.

All service companies require that the appliances be in your home before scheduling an appointment. Installation does not include preparing the site--plumbing, electricity, carpentry. Review it with the appropriate technician and read the service contract to make sure everything is ready.

To arrange installation and to get more detailed information about preparation of site, call Kef.

Service contracts for microwave, TV, video, and stereo do not include installation.

Note: TV's comes without coaxial cable to connect to the antenna jack. Stereo comes without speaker wire and plug adapter. Phones + Electric Calculators may come without 220 volt adapters, available here for NS 13 15. Many appliances--small and large--come without plugs, since these are export models exported all over the world. The technician will affix them free of charge, if you have service contracts on your major appliances.
