6.3 Mounting instruction plate
The E3 is supplied with an instruction plate. This is a rigid plate with basic visual
instructions for how to operate the E3 in an emergency. The plate varies slightly
depending on whether you have a wall bracket or a full enclosure. The wall bracket
version is illustrated below.

The instruction plate should be mounted next to the EPIRB so that it is easily visible
in an emergency. Use the four self-tapping screws supplied to mount the plate.
Mounting dimensions are shown in the diagram above, or you can use the plate
itself at a drilling guide for the screws.
During vessel maintenance, ensure the plate does not get painted over or cleaned
down with strong degreasing solvents.
