Service and Maintenance
After use (not activated)
Clean the outer case with fresh water, wipe dry and examine for any damage. Store in
a cool dry place.
Inadvertent antenna deployment
If the red anti-tamper seal is removed, the antenna will automatically deploy. Re-
winding the antenna and fitting a new anti-tamper seal can only be done by a Orolia
Ltd authorized service station. For safe transportation, wrap the antenna around the
body of the PLB and fix in place with adhesive tape. Do not close or fold the flip-up lid
over the top of the deployed antenna as this may damage the antenna.
NOTE: Antenna re-winding will incur a service charge.
CAUTION: Never attempt to re coil the antenna
