危险说明 Hazard

  • The transceiver can switch modes unexpectedly when not locked or installed in the harness. When this occurs, it will prevent the transceiver from transmitting a signal and can make it difficult to locate a skier in an avalanche, which can result in severe bodily harm or death.

Units:About 66,100 (In addition, about 12,500 were sold in Canada)
