Routine Maintenance
Carefully inspect the beacon case for any visible cracks.
Cracks may admit moisture, which could falsely activate the
beacon or otherwise cause a malfunction. Any cracks
observed should be immediately referred to ACR for
evaluation by calling [phone]. ACR Technical
Support can also be reached by sending an email to:
[e-mail]
After checking the beacon case for cracks, it may be wiped
down with a clean, damp cloth. Do not use any type of
cleaner on your beacon.
Battery Replacement
Replace the battery no later than 6 years from beacon date
of manufacture, 5 years from in service date, or after
emergency use. At each inspection, check the time
remaining until replacement is required. The battery should
be replaced if the beacon has been activated for any use
other than the Self-test. Always refer battery replacements
and other beacon service to a factory authorized Battery
Replacement Center. Battery replacement includes servicing
the beacon by replacing all o-rings, testing the water seal
and the electrical properties.
NOTE: There are no user serviceable items inside the
beacon. DO NOT OPEN THE BEACON. Opening the beacon
will void the warranty.
