To select a language, scroll down the list using the two up/down arrows, and

Entering your contact details
You have three lines of alphanumerical marks. We advise you to start with your
surname and fi rst name, to identify your device in case of loss.
The fi rst telephone number can be the owner's. The second can be a number to
call in case of emergency.
This information is displayed each time the device is switched on.
Automatic switch to transmit mode (default time: 8 minutes)
The device has a motion detector. This lets the device automatically switch to
transmit mode if it detects that, in receive mode, you have not moved for 4 or
8 minutes. This function can be very useful in case of a second accident, if sear-
chers have not had time to switch their device from search (receive) to transmit
mode. The default time before switching is 8 minutes
However, if you are in search mode, the device asks for validation ("SEARCH?")
to authorise the switch to transmit. If you do not operate the centre button, the
device switches even if your selector is set to SEARCH.
This function can be deactivated (no automatic switch to transmission mode).
This means only you can switch from SEARCH (receive) mode to transmit mode
Marking distance :
This lets you choose the marking function from 3 meters or from 5 meters
3 meters marking is the standard for normal users, 5 meters marking is a spe-
cial setting for particular snow conditions and should only be used by trained
professionals
Adjusting LCD contrast (default: Medium)
This lets you adapt the display to ambient light
Reset
This lets you restore all the default settings.
Exit
Once you have set your device, validate Exit to record your settings and return
to transmit mode.
If the confi guration menu is inactive for 1 minute, the device automatically swit-
ches to transmit mode, starting with a self-test.
