Maintenance and Repair
Barryvox transceivers, which do not function correct-
ly, despite full and properly inserted batteries (e.g.
problem listed under troubleshooting, no signal dur-
ing the group check, mechanical defects) must be
sent to a service center listed on the inside of the
cover.
6.6
Periodic Checks
To ensure the proper functionality of the transceiver,
it is highly recommended that you send your device
to a service center listed on the inside of the cover
once every three years for a functional test. There is
a service charge involved.
This functional test is far
more comprehensive than the self-test or group
check
. Preferably, you will have the periodic check
conducted during the summer months, so that your
Barryvox is ready at the beginning of the winter sea-
son. The recommended date of the next check can be
viewed under «Maintenance».
6.7
Preventative Maintenance for Frequent Users
There is a 5-year warranty on the avalanche trans-
ceiver. If the transceiver is used frequently, preventa-
tive maintenance at the user’s expense is recom-
mended every three years. This applies to users who
use their transceivers more than 1,500 hours over the
course of three years. The objective is to ensure the
high reliability of the device for the next three years
and to test all the components and functions. To fur-
ther optimize the safe application of the device, espe-
cially in professional settings, please refer to the
Application Safety Guide.
