Notes, Cautions and Warnings
The following notes, cautions and warnings apply to all EPIRBs and
must be followed for personal safety and proper HRU replacement.
WARNING: Failure to replace the entire assembly can cause the
bracket to malfunction.
WARNING: Do not use any parts from the old HRU (the one being
replaced).
WARNING: The HRU holds down the ejector spring. Take great
care to hold the spring in place during removal and installation of the
new HRU to prevent injury.
WARNING: Stow the EPIRB in a dry location as it will activate if out
of the bracket and wet.
WARNING: Non-ACR-supplied hydrostatic release units must not be
installed in ACR Category I EPIRB brackets. ACR cannot and does not
warrant the performance of other manufacturers’ products. Installation
of a non-ACR-supplied HRU voids the warranty and potentially
jeopardizes your safety.
CAUTION: Visually check the EPIRB when removing it from the
bracket. It must be sent back to ACR for check up and/or refurbishment
if ANY of the following conditions exist:
Cracks to the exterior plastics
Activation indicator break tab is broken
Moisture appears inside the EPIRB
Lacquer is not present in one of the screws or appears to have been
tampered with
NOTE: Some parts in this kit will not be used. Refer to Figure 1 and the
instructions for your specific model for details. Discard unused parts.
