An avalanche beacon does not protect against avalanches! Detailed knowledge of avalanche prevention is
as indispensable as regularly practicing victim searches in an emergency. The following procedures and tips
relate only to special usage in conjunction with the PIEPS beacon. The basic line of action in an emergency – as
explained in specialist publications and material from avalanche courses – must be followed.
With the PIEPS beacon you have a product that is state of the art in terms of safety and user-friendliness.
Despite this, the PIEPS beacon can pose risks if used inappropriately or incorrectly. We refer to possible
