6. APPENDIX
6.1 Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Your EPIRB will require little maintenance except periodic cleaning, if required. Always
use a damp cloth to clean the case and dry thoroughly. Do not use solvents or other
cleaning fluids as this may cause the plastics to deteriorate.
6.2 Batteries
The E101V contains Lithium batteries for long operating life. Your battery must be
replaced either after the expiry date or after the EPIRB has been activated for over one
hour. Battery replacement must be done at an Ocean Signal authorised battery
replacement centre.
All Lithium batteries self discharge slowly over time at a rate that is related to
temperature. Maximum performance of the battery is achieved with long term storage at
an average temperature of no greater than 20°C.
6.3 Transport
When shipping your EPIRB the following guidance and regulations should be followed, but
you are advised to contact your nearest battery replacement centre or Ocean Signal prior
to shipping as regulations may have changed.

Always pack your EPIRB securely in a stout cardboard carton. Ocean Signal advises
that you keep the original packaging in case of return for service.

6.4 Disposal
Care should be taken when disposing of your EPIRB when it is no longer required. It is
recommended to remove the battery from the EPIRB by removing the case lid. The case
screws are covered by the top labels. Dispose of the battery in accordance with local
waste regulations. Please note that the E101V is not user serviceable and removing the lid
will invalidate the warranty.
