2766.6 ETSI Type Approved to ETS 300 152 Y1-03-0167 Rev. B ACR Electronics, Inc. 5757 Ravenswood Road Fort Lauderdale, Fl 33312 Tel : +1(954) 981-3333 Fax: +1 (954) 983-5087 Email: Info@acrelectronics.com * * * WARNING * * * THIS TRANSMITTER IS AUTHORIZED FOR USE ONLY DURING SITUATIONS OF GRAVE AND IMMINENT DANGER DELIBERATE MISUSE MAY INCUR A SEVERE PENALTY Foreword: Congratulations and thank you! You have just purchased the finest Class B personal EPIRB available on the market. Other brands merely attempt to meet the requirements established by authorities. By purchasing this EPIRB you have distinguished yourself as one of the safest persons in boating. To be a responsible EPIRB owner: • Read this manual. • Activate your EPIRB ONLY in an emergency. • Prepare an emergency evacuation plan and rehearse it. • In a grave and imminent situation, where you have exhausted all other means of rescue, activate your EPIRB and leave it "ON" until Search And Rescue forces arrive. Do not turn it off and on in the misguided belief that you are saving battery power. • NEVER set off a false alarm. Follow the instructions in section 5 to operationally test your EPIRB. Search and Rescue forces will respond to all known emergencies. This EPIRB will alert the authorities to an emergency if activated in most coastal waters, (excluding parts of Africa and Antarctica). The USCG reports that 99% of all Class A & B EPIRB activation's are false. The high number of false activation events places an unnecessary burden on the Search and Rescue system. Don’t be guilty of causing a false or accidental activation. Help educate others that irresponsible handling of EPIRBs risks lives by slowing the response to real emergencies and wastes tax payer dollars.
