5.) Place keyed bracket adapter (D) on the bottom of the HRU. This part is keyed so that it will fit together only one way. Turn to the right until it snaps into place.

6.) Mark the expiry date on the HRU according to the instructions in Section 3.

7.) Record the expiration date on the HRU expiration label (K) with an indelible marker.

8.) Push the release spring back against the bracket aligning the holes on the spring with the holes in the back of the bracket.

9.) Take the assembled HRU and place the washer end of the HRU through the larger top hole and slide down

into the smaller slot (see Figure C), locking the HRU and spring into place.

10.) Carefully release the HRU and make sure it is securely in place.

11.) Reinstall the beacon with the lanyard facing toward the back of the bracket.

12.) Put the top cover on the base, maneuvering the HRU through the rod hole on the bracket.

13.) Verify the bottom hinge and the top bracket are securely connected.

14.) Place a cotter pin into the top of the HRU release rod, locking the top cover in place.
