a proper landing and the determination of the landing site are out of your control.
CAUTION! Should you end up in power lines (carrying electrical current), DO NOT under any
circumstances touch any metal parts inside or outside the cockpit. This also applies to anyone
attempting to help or rescue you. Be aware that anyone touching a metal part while standing on
the ground will probably suer mayor injury or die of electrocution. Therefore, you are strongly
encouraged to conne your movements until qualied personal arrives at the site to assist you.

tem, do not hesitate and immediately contact the manufacturer!
