V • Sea Marshall AU9 Operation
WARNING: When the Sea Marshall AU9 is fitted inside a PFD
instead of a purpose-built sMRT pouch, DO NOT unzip the main
PFD zip. Use the Sea Marshall AU9 access point zip in the life
jacket to prepare the device for use. The Sea Marshall AU9 should
only be used in an emergency. DELIBERATE MISUSE MAY INCUR
A SEVERE PENALTY.
The Sea Marshall AU9 must be professionally fitted to an MRT approved
SOLAS rated PFD to operate correctly. This ensures the device is in the
most effective position for water activation and emergency
transmissions, while the PFD assists the casualty to remain afloat and
face-up when in the water.
The Sea Marshall AU9 is normally inserted into a purpose-built pouch
for stability. The device is [OFF] when shipped and needs to be
configured in the [READY] state prior to use.
WARNING: See the MRT website www.mrtsos.com for specific
instructions on accessing the Sea Marshall AU9 inside the
sMRT PFD.
