Registering your Mobilarm V100
Registering your ownership of a Mobilarm V100 with the
relevant national maritime authority for your region is mandatory.
Typically, this will be in the country of purchase.
Fill out the registration form with your contact details and the
MMSI (Maritime Mobile Service Identity) number located on
the back of your device, and submit it to the relevant national
maritime authority for your region.
The MMSI number and your contact details are stored in a
national database. In the event that the device is activated,
search and rescue authorities can access this important
information to verify the distress alert and accelerate the rescue
operation.

Allocation of MMSI numbers for the Mobilarm V100 varies
from country to country. In most cases, the device will be pre-
programmed with an MMSI number applicable to the region in
which it is available for sale prior to purchase. This number
is located on the back of the unit. Make a note of your MMSI
numberand keep it in a safe place.
Your authorised Mobilarm service agent can verify that the
MMSI number is appropriate for your region.
