Activate the ELT using applied force. The direction forward force activation is
indicated on the ELT. The AK-451-(AF) (AP) ELT can be activated by using a rapid
forward (throwing) motion coupled by a rapid reversing action. Verify that the ELT
has been activated by use of the Wattmeter, the Airplane’s VHF Radio
Communications Receiver when tuned to 121.5 MHz, or other means (see Note 1).
The ELT must then be reset by pressing either the RESET push button located on the
ELT main unit or the ELT Remote Unit.
Note 1: This is not a measured check. It only indicates that the G-Switch is working.
