What our service work and the manufacturer documentation say about keeping this model running.
An annual performance test by an authorised service engineer is required. The surveyor checks the test report, playback of recorded data, microphone coverage, the condition of the protected capsule and the battery expiry date of its locator beacon.
Keep spare fuses, a spare microphone and cable set, and the maker's recommended consumables for the storage unit and the capsule beacon battery on board. Order further parts through the maker or its authorised service network.
