NOTICE All participants, observers included, must switch their devices to search mode (or to standby
mode)! Also follow the external interference distance recommendations!
As soon as signals are received, the distance and direction to the strongest signal are shown on the display. The
number of victims located within the receiving range is indicated by the number of human figures.

Vibra on initial signal detection
The GUIDE BT provides additional haptic support by vibration on initial signal
detection. This lets rescuers focus on the visual surface search during the signal
search.
4.8.3 Coarse search
Follow the directional arrow quickly and check for a decreasing distance reading. Change the search direction by
180° in case of an increasing distance reading.
4.8.4 Fine search
From a distance of 5 m, the search speed should be notably reduced (50 cm/s). At the same time, start working
close to the surface of the snow. To prevent confusion during the fine search, the direction indication disappears
below a distance of 2 m. Reduce the search speed again and find, by cross-like movements, the position of the
lowest distance reading. A dynamic acoustic signal output supports the fine search: the closer the higher/faster.
