ARVA EVO4 Guía De Utilización página 7

COARSE SEARCH
During the coarse search :
• Carefully follow the distance and
direction indicators on the screen
• Point the device in the direction of the signal
• In a complex situation with multiple victims, the device
may have trouble analyzing the signal. In this case, move a
few steps away and then return towards the critical point
by following another direction.

• Search in a calm and
focused manner.
• Slow down as you ap-
proach the fine search.
• If the displayed distance
starts to increase even
though you are moving in
the direction indicated by
the arrow, turn around.
DURING THE SEARCH, PAY ATTENTION TO VISUAL CLUES
SUCH AS POLES, SKIS, CLOTHING, ETC.
FINE SEARCH
Once within 3 meters of the victim, your ARVA no longer
indicates a direction and you must start bracketing (search-
ing in a cross pattern).
It is then much quicker to start probing once you have de-
fined the probable burial zone within a less than one-meter
range.
1. Lower your device to near
snow level.
2. Move your device in a cross
pattern to locate the point
where the distance reading is
the lowest.
