! The lanyard is provided to attach the EPIRB to the life raft or your per-
son, once it is activated. Do not use it to attach it to the ship, as this may
result in the loss of the EPIRB if the vessel sinks. Once the rubber band
is removed pass the large loop
over your hand to hold the EPIRB
and then attach the small loop to
the life raft.
! It is important that the vessel details are marked on the EPIRB. Please
use a fine tip UV resistant indelible pen to clearly mark the MMSI, Vessel
Name and Call Sign in the spaces provided. Cover this label with the
clear protective label provided to protect the text from wear.
