recommendations for use

Advance over the terrain SLOWLY to not head in a wrong direction in your haste. The entire
surface of the avalanche site must be covered. During a search or a test, be sure to: stay away
from any electrical device (high-voltage power line, radio, portable cellular phone) or establish a
radio silence. This list is not exhaustive.
This applies to any avalanche transceiver-type transmission-reception device. The distance
and direction display gives an indication of progress on a flux line and not of direct distance in
meters.
information for your own safety
When you go off ski trails with their assurance of safety, you head for a world of risks where an
avalanche, in particular, can happen. You therefore are enjoying your recreation in the moun-
tains under your own responsibility:
• Before leaving, get informed through representative organizations and mountain professio-
nals and get equipped. In particular, have an avalanche transceiver (an avalanche victim research
device), a shovel and an avalanche probe. This equipment is not an avalanche detector, nor a
total protection. Be careful – to be efficient, you have to be trained: train youself therefore to
use your ARVA!
• Never go out alone, do not follow just any ski trails: they are not an absolute guarantee of
safety. In doubt as to the stability of a slope that you must absolutely take, increase the distance
between you, or better, only go one at a time. And look out for each other.
• Last, know when to stop... Be vigilant: snow changes, the risk of an avalanche as well! Learn
therefore to know more about avalanches (get informed through the pertaining organizations).
