emergency transmission.
SECTION 4 – NORMAL PROCEDURES
As long as the function selector switch remain in the AUTO position, the ELT automatically activates
following an impact of 5G or more over a short period of time.
Following a lightning strike, or an exceptionally hard landing, the ELT may activate although no
emergency exists. To check your ELT for inadvertent activation, select 121.5 MHz on your radio
transceiver and listen for an emergency tone transmission. If the ELT can be heard transmitting, place
the function selector switch in the OFF position and the tone should cease. Immediately place the
function selector switch in the AUTO position to re-set the ELT for normal operation.
