OPERATION
The EPIRB3 Pro is designed for best operation while floating in water. If used in other situa-
tions ensure that the EPIRB3 Pro is placed in the open, clear of any cover and kept upright.
Do not place the EPIRB3 Pro close to large structures or under cover.
In the event that the vessel sinks the EPIRB3 Pro will automatically be released from the
housing and will activate on contact with the water.
In the case of abandoning ship, if possible, recover the EPIRB3 Pro and tie to the survival
craft or person using the lanyard. For optimum operation, it is recommended that the
EPIRB3 Pro be tied to the raft with the lanyard and floated in the sea.
!
The EPIRB3 Pro is prevented from accidental activation while mounted in the Auto
Release Housing.
!
For manual activation the EPIRB3 Pro MUST be removed from the housing and the
antenna allowed to deploy fully.
