1.5 INTENDED USE
The PIEPS beacon serves as an avalanche victim search device (avalanche transceiver) for the localization of
buried persons and must only be used as intended. Any other use requires the written consent of Pieps GmbH.
Improper use can put individuals at risk and result in the device being damaged. The PIEPS beacon is not an

intended will result in all liability and warranty claims being rejected. The PIEPS beacon is to be operated only
under the conditions of use described in the documentation.
1.6 TARGET GROUP AND PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE

the secured piste into open, unsecured terrain (e.g. ski touring, freeriding, mountain rescue operations, etc.).
