Piper TURBO ARROW III User Manual

12-12. INADVERTENT ACTIVATION. The remote switch allows the pilot to turn off the transmitter
inadvertently activated by impact or improper switch position. The pilot simply selects the momentary OFF,
RESET position. The transmitter shuts off and the spring loaded switch automatically returns to the ARM
position. The aircraft master switch must be ON to turn transmitter OFF with the remote switch. Stopping
inadvertent activation at the transmitter itself is accomplished in the following manner:
a. Improper switch selection is corrected by rotating the switch to the OFF position and then to the ARM
position.
b. If the transmitter is inadvertently activated through impact, deactivate by pushing in on the
OFF/ARM/ON switch.
NOTE
As a routine precaution, it is recommended that the ELT battery be replaced
at the earliest opportunity after inadvertent activation and a functional test
be made in accordance with paragraph 12-10. Note, however, that the
problem may not be in the transmitter. Check the following:
1. Proper spacing of antennas so as to minimize antenna conducted RF.
2. Rigidity of the transmitter installation.
CAUTION
Under normal conditions, the pilot’s remote switch must be set to ARM
position.
