USER MANUALBARRYVOX®26ENLike all transceivers, the Barryvox® contains shock sensitive ferrite antennas. Therefore, you should handle it with utmost care!Store the device and the carrying system in a dry spot that is protected from extreme cold or heat and direct sunshine.Always check the result of the self- and battery test, pay atten-tion to alert messages and carry out the group check.It is your responsibility to frequently check your Barryvox® for mechanical damage of the casing, proper function of the main switch, battery compartment cover as well as cleanliness and mechanical integrity of the battery contacts.To ensure the proper performance of the transceiver, it is highly recommended that you send your device to an offi cial Barryvox® service center once every three years for a func-tional test. The recommended date of the next check can be viewed under «Maintenance» in the shut down sequence of the device. (see chapter «Periodic Checks» of the Barryvox® Extended Reference Manual).InterferencesAlways avoid having other electronic devices (e.g. mobile phones, radios, headlamps, cameras), metal objects (pocket knives, magnetic buttons), or other transceivers close to (20 cm in SEND; 50 cm in SEARCH) your running avalanche transceiver.You should not wear clothing with magnetic buttons! Users of pacemakers are advised to carry the device in a secure pants pocket. Consult the manufacturer’s instructions with regard to the impact on pacemakers. When searching, hold the device at a minimum of 50cm away from these objects and turn off any electronic devices, if possible. It is highly recommended to turn OFF mobile phones!HANDLING THE BARRYVOX®
USER MANUALBARRYVOX®27ENBatteriesOnly use alkaline (LR03/AAA) batteries of the same type. Always insert 3 new batteries of the same type. In case these batteries need to be removed, the same 3 batteries or 3 new batteries must be reinserted. Never use rechargeable batteries and always replace all the batteries at the same time.Make sure the lid is properly closed and that the device and the batteries stay dryUse a fi ngernail or the leash clip to slide battery door to the left, and it will swing open. 2121Periodically inspect the battery compartment. Clean or dry it, if needed, since moisture can cause corrosion.Avoid touching the contacts with your hands, use a clean cloth.A reliable power supply is crucial for safe operation.When storing or not using the transceiver for an extended period of time (summer, travelling,shipping), remove alkaline batteries and leave the battery compartmentopen. The warranty becomes void if batteries have leaked! INITIAL SETUP

The group leader activates the group check by switching their device from OFF to SEND and presses the button within the first seconds.GROUP CHECKParticipants –> SEND Leader –> Group Check
USER MANUALBARRYVOX®35ENThe test is successful if you can clearly hear beep sounds from each participant‘s transceiver within the range indicated on the display.The members of the party must be spread out appropriately to avoid mutual interference. The indicated test distance must not be shortened, or the group check becomes very unreliable.Once all the participant‘s devices are tested, the group check is concluded. The group leader’s transceiver must be switched to the SEND mode.If no tone is heard within the indicated range, the device must not be used. Further procedure: 1. Check if the device is switched to SEND. 2. Replace the batteries. 3. Have the device checked by the manufacturer. Chapter «Maintenance and Repair» in the Barryvox® Extended Reference Guide). If your Barryvox® detects that the transmit frequency of the tested device is out of tolerance, a warning message will be shown. In this case, repeat the test with 5m distance between the par-ticipants to identify the defective transmitter. Such devices must be checked by the manufacturer.
USER MANUALBARRYVOX®36EN The SEND mode is the normal operating mode outdoors or in all other situations in which there is a risk of avalanches. Each time the SEND mode is activated, this is confirmed by an ascending triple beep sound.Each individual signal pulse is tested. If the test is successful, this is confirmed by a blink of the red SEND-Control LED.If the device detects that the SEND function is compromised, the red SEND-Control LED stops flashing and screen shows an alert message. To save battery power, the LCD screen is automatically deac-tivated in the SEND mode, but can be activated any time by pressing any button.SEND

The first signal is indicated by a distinct double beep sound. Coarse Search BarryTip: Move swiftly, move in the direction of the arrow.  Hold the transceiver with the extended arm horizontally in front of you. If the distance increases, then you are moving away from the victim. Continue the search in the opposite direction.Distance below 10 BarryTip: Reduce search speed, precisely follow the arrow. 12 Be aware that electronic devices including mobile phones used by other rescuers may disturb the search.

MODE D’EMPLOIBARRYVOX®46FRComme tout DVA, le Barryvox® contient aussi des antennes de ferrite sensibles aux chocs. Manipulez donc votre appareil avec les plus grandes précautions! Conservez l’appareil et le système de fi xation à un emplacement sec, protégé des températures extrêmes – basses et élevées – et à l’abri des rayons directs du soleil. Veuillez toujours observer le résultat de l’autotest de l’appareil et du test des piles, ainsi que d’éven-tuels messages d’erreur, et e ectuez le test de groupe.Nous vous recommandons en outre de vérifi er votre Barryvox® régulièrement et sous votre responsabilité, notamment les dégâts mécaniques du boîtier, le fonctionnement correct de l’interrupteur principal et du couvercle du logement des piles, ainsi que la propreté et l’absence de corrosion des contacts des piles.Il est vivement recommandé de faire vérifi er le fonctionnement de l’appareil tous les 3 ans. A cet e et, envoyez votre appareil à un point service o ciel Barryvox®. La date du prochain contrôle peut être a chée sous «Entretien» lors de l’arrêt de l’appareil. (Chapitre «Contrôle périodique par un point service Barryvox» dans le manuel de référence Barryvox®.)PerturbationsEvitez la présence d’appareils électroniques (par ex. téléphones mobiles, appareils radio, lampes frontales, app. photo), d’objets métalliques (par ex. couteau de poche, boutons magnétiques) ou un autre DVA à proximité immédiate d’un DVA enclenché (20 cm en mode SEND, 50 cm en mode SEARCH.Ne portez pas de vêtements avec des boutons magnétiques! Aux porteurs de stimulateurs cardiaques, il est recommandé de porter le DVA dans une poche de pantalon sécurisée. Concer-nant les perturbations possibles du stimulateur cardiaque, référez-vous aux directives de son fabricant.Au cours de la recherche, votre appareil doit être éloigné d’au moins 50 cm de tels objets. Il est instamment recom-mandé d’éteindre les appareils électroniques dont l’usage n’est pas impératif, notamment les téléphones mobiles!PRISE EN MAIN DE VOTRE BARRYVOX®
MODE D’EMPLOIBARRYVOX®47FRPilesUtilisez exclusivement des piles alcalines (LR03/AAA). Il faut toujours installer 3 nouvelles piles du même type. Si ces piles sont retirées, il faut réintroduire les 3 mêmes piles ou 3 piles neuves. N’utilisez en aucun cas des piles rechargeables et remplacez toujours toutes les piles en même temps. Veillez à ce que le couvercle soit correctement encliqueté et que les piles et l’appareil restent secs.Utilisez un ongle ou le crochet de la dragonne pour pousser le couvercle du compartiment des piles vers la gauche, et ainsi l’ouvrir. 2121Vérifi ez périodiquement le compartiment des piles et net-toyez-le, resp. séchez-le si nécessaire. En e et, de l’humi-dité dans le compartiment des piles peut occasionner de la corrosion. Ne pas toucher les contacts avec les doigts.
