GME EPIRBS have saved literally hundreds of lives over the past 20 years.
Hopefully, you will never be in the situation that calls for EPIRB activation, however if you are, you need to be certain your EPIRB is ready for action.
We recommend 3 simple checks on a monthly basis or prior to any extended voyage.
1. Ensure battery expiry date has not been reached.
2. Select "TEST" mode and verify the indicator light is flashing (and audible "BEEP" is present for MT300 & MT310 models).
3. Confirm there is no physical damage and that safety seal is in place and unbroken.
If in doubt, contact your nearest GME Dealer or Branch Office for advice.
