This Fastfind or Fastfind Plus Personal Locator Beacon (PLB) is an
emergency radio beacon for use only in situations of grave and imminent
danger.
False alarms cause expensive disruption to search and rescue services,
and may endanger lives. Deliberate misuse of the PLB can result in a
severe penalty.
Make sure you read this manual and understand how to activate/de-
activate your PLB, and how to change the battery packs. Ensure that the
PEPIRB is registered with NOAA SARSAT office in Suitland, MD. Failure
to register may lead to prosecution.
The PLB and battery pack contain no user-serviceable parts. Do not
dismantle the PLB or the battery pack. Battery packs contain lithium
batteries. Do not incinerate, puncture, deform, or short-circuit. Dispose of
spent battery packs safely and in accordance with local waste disposal
regulations.
The PLB is a radio transmitter, and as such emits radio frequency
radiation when activated. This radiation is classified as harmless because
of the levels and duty cycles; however it is advisable not to handle the
antenna while the unit is transmitting.
