🔍 Key Concepts

• EPIRB (Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon) maintenance and service requirements • Manufacturer’s battery replacement schedule and printed replacement date on the beacon label • Difference between time-based replacement vs. condition/voltage-based replacement

💭 Think About

• Look at which choices mention both after emergency use AND a specific time/date requirement when there has been no emergency use. • Ask yourself: Does EPIRB maintenance normally rely on checking voltage percentage, or on a fixed replacement interval set by the manufacturer and regulations? • Consider which option best matches the idea that the beacon must work reliably even if the crew has not tested or measured it recently.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify that the correct choice mentions the printed replacement date or clear replacement schedule rather than only a generic time like "every 12 months". • Check whether regulations expect you to change the battery after any activation in an emergency, even if it still seems to work. • Eliminate any options that rely solely on battery voltage percentage as the trigger for replacement.
