Care and maintenance
Inspection
At least every ninety days, the float free mounting bracket and beacon should be
inspected for deterioration and/or residue buildup that may affect the function of
the beacon or automatic release. Part of the visual check includes checking the
antenna for tightness. Clean the beacon and the mounting bracket to remove any
residue buildups. It is recommended that the beacon and mounting bracket be
wiped with a damp cloth.
Carefully inspect the beacon case for any visible cracks. Cracks may admit
moisture, which could falsely activate the beacon or otherwise cause a
malfunction. Any cracks observed should immediately be referred to ACR Service
