Maintenance and Troubleshooting

Your MSLD will require little maintenance except periodic cleaning, if required. Always
use a damp cloth to clean the case and dry thoroughly. Do not use solvents or other
cleaning fluids as this may cause the plastics to deteriorate. Ensure the antenna is free to
unwind.
6.5

Batteries

The MOB1 contains Lithium batteries for long operating life. Your battery must be
replaced either after the expiry date or after the MSLD has been activated, even if only for a
short period of time. Battery replacement must be done at an Ocean Signal authorised
battery replacement centre.
6.6

Transport

When shipping your MSLD the following guidance and regulations should be followed, but
you are advised to contact your nearest battery replacement centre or Ocean Signal prior
to shipping as regulations may have changed.
•
Always pack your MSLD securely in a stout cardboard carton. Ocean Signal advises that
you keep the original packaging in case of return for service.
•
For surface transport the MSLD may be shipped under special provision 188.
•
For air transport the MSLD should be shipped as category UN3091 and packed under
IATA packing instruction 970 section II. If you are hand carrying your MSLD on an
aircraft please contact you airline for advice.
6.7

Disposal

Care should be taken when disposing of your MSLD when it is no longer required. It is
recommended to remove the battery from the MSLD by removing the case lid. The case
screws are covered by the top label. Dispose of the battery in accordance with local waste
regulations. Please note that the MOB1 is not user serviceable and opening the case will
invalidate the warranty.
