JRC JQE-103 Operation Manual page 10

Open slowly the cover of release bracket.
If you open faster, EPIRB main unit may deviate from release bracket and fall down.
<Executing test>
In this test, permitted distress signal for the test purpose is transmitted only by one burst.
Do not execute the test repeatedly in a short time frame.
Execute the test in 00 - 05 minutes of each o'clock for the reduction of processing capacity in the
satellite.
This test must not be performed, as the Satellite EPIRB main unit remains removed from the
automatic release bracket. The distress signal may erroneously be emitted.
<Warning label>
Do not remove, destroy, or modify warning labels.
Ask purchasing dealer, JRC agent or one of the JRC branches to replace any stained, illegible, or
damaged label if it can affect maintenance and use.
<Others>
Ask the service to purchasing dealer, JRC agent or one of the JRC branches if the battery, hydraulic
pressure sensor or stopper pin is replaced or the abnormal status is recognized in the Satellite
EPIRB.
If you want to replace or repair the battery or hydraulic pressure sensor, contact the purchasing
dealer, JRC agent or one of the JRC branches.
Do not wipe the both of conductive switch terminals in the same time.
It might cause the false transmission of distress signal due to the sensor detects the water and
activated.
Do not wipe the Satellite EPIRB with seawater. If the salt content is adhered to the Satellite
EPIRB, It might cause the false transmission.
Never loosen the conductive switch terminal.
There is a possibility of not transmitting the signal at emergency if the conductive switch terminal is
loosened.
Take care not to get hurt at the end of the antenna or band of the automatic release bracket.
Do not use a solvent (paint-thinner, alcohol etc.) or alkaline/neutral detergent to clean up the Satellite
EPIRB.
It causes crack on the resin if such a detergent is used, and Satellite EPIRB may not operate
properly in the worst case by leaking etc.
