Manual operation

Keep the EPIRB in an open area and away from metal
objects to ensure best performance (this includes ship
construction).
Do not tie the lanyard to a ship during an emergency,
this prevents the EPIRB from functioning if the ship
sinks.
To manually operate the Tron 40VDR, do the following:
1. Remove the cotter pin from the bracket.
2. Remove the cover.
