     This device is only to be used by trained users in workplace applications.



     !        WARNING
     This Self-Retracting Device is part of a personal fall protection system. It is expected that all users be fully trained in the safe installation and
     operation of their personal fall protection system. Misuse of this device could result in serious injury or death. For proper selection,
     operation, installation, maintenance, and service, refer to these User Instructions including all manufacturer recommendations, see your
     supervisor, or contact 3M Technical Services.

     •    To reduce the risks associated with working with an SRD which, if not avoided, could result in serious injury or death:
          -   Before each use, inspect the SRD and check for proper locking and retraction.
          -   If inspection reveals an unsafe or defective condition, remove the device from service and repair or replace according to the User
              Instructions.
          -   If the SRD has been subjected to fall arrest or impact force, immediately remove the SRD from service and label the device ‘UNUSABLE’.
          -   Ensure the lifeline is kept free from any and all obstructions including, but not limited to; entanglement with moving machinery or
              equipment (e.g., the top drive of oil rigs), other workers, yourself, surrounding objects, or impact from overhead objects that could fall
              onto the lifeline or the worker.
          -   Never allow slack in the lifeline. Do not tie or knot the lifeline.
          -   Attach the unused leg(s) of the Harness Mounted SRD to the parking attachment(s) of the harness if equipped.
          -   Do not use in applications that have an obstructed fall path. Working on slowly shifting material, such as sand or grain, or within confined
              or cramped spaces, may not allow the worker to reach sufficient speed to cause the SRD to lock. A clear path is required to assure
              positive locking of the SRD.
          -   Avoid sudden or quick movements during normal work operation. This may cause the device to lock up.
          -   Ensure that fall protection systems/subsystems assembled from components made by different manufacturers are compatible and meet
              the requirements of applicable standards, including the ANSI Z359 or other applicable fall protection codes, standards, or requirements.

DESCRIPTION:
Figure 2 identifies key components of the 3M™ DBI-SALA® Smart Lock Connected Self-Retracting Lifeline (SRL) models listed in
Figure 1. Smart Lock Connected SRLs are drum wound Cable Lifelines (A) that retract into a PC/PBT Housing (B). They can hang
from anchorage by a Carabiner (C) attached through the Swivel Eye (D) on the top of the SRL. A Self-Locking Snap Hook (E) on
the end of the Lifeline attaches to the designated Fall Arrest connection on a Full Body Harness. A Bumper (F), protects the Wire
Rope and Ferrules securing the Snap Hook from abrasion and corrosion.

Smart Lock Connected Self-Retracting Lifelines incorporate electronic functionality that provides condition and usage status
previously not available in traditional mechanical Self-Retracting Devices. The SRL utilizes software and electronics to provide
users and on-site safety professionals with feedback during and after use of the device. A Battery (G) powered On-Board
Keypad (H) with Push Buttons, LED Indicator Lights, and an Audible Buzzer allows the user to check the status of the SRL on
site. Wireless connectivity enables communication of status and usage data to the 3M Connected Equipment app on a Bluetooth
mobile device.

1.0 APPLICATIONS
1.1      PURPOSE: Self-Retracting Devices (SRDs) are designed to be a component in a personal fall arrest system (PFAS). Figure
         1 illustrates SRDs covered by this instruction manual. They may be used in most situations where a combination of worker
         mobility and fall protection is required (i.e. inspection work, general construction, maintenance work, oil production,
         confined space work, etc.).

1.2      STANDARDS: Your SRD conforms to the national or regional standard(s) identified on the front cover of these
         instructions. Refer to the local, state, and federal (OSHA) requirements governing occupational safety for additional
         information regarding Personal Fall Protection.

1.3      TRAINING: This equipment is intended to be used by persons trained in its correct application and use. It is the responsibility of the
         user to assure they are familiar with these instructions and are trained in the correct care and use of this equipment. Users must also
         be aware of the operating characteristics, application limits, and the consequences of improper use.

1.4      LIMITATIONS: Always consider the following limitations when installing or using this equipment:

         •     Capacity: SRDs are for use by one person with a combined weight (clothing, tools, etc.) meeting the Capacity Range
               specified in Table 1 for your standard(s). Make sure all of the components in your system are rated to a capacity
               appropriate to your application.

         •     Anchorage: Anchorages selected for fall arrest systems shall have a strength capable of sustaining static loads
               applied in the directions permitted by the system of at least:

               1.    5,000 lbs. (22.2 kN) for non-certified anchorages, or
               2.    Two times the maximum arresting force for certified anchorages.
               When more than one fall arrest system is attached to an anchorage, the strengths set forth in (1) and
               (2) above shall be multiplied by the number of systems attached to the anchorage.

                 FROM OSHA 1926.500 AND 1910.104: Anchorages used for attachment of personal fall arrest systems shall be
                 independent of any anchorage being used to support or suspend platforms, and capable of supporting at least 5,000 lbs.
                 per user attached, or be designed, installed, and used as part of a complete personal fall arrest systems which maintains
                 a safety factor of at least two, and is under the supervision of a qualified person.

         •     Locking Speed: Situations which do not allow for an unobstructed fall path should be avoided. Working in confined
               or cramped spaces may not allow the body to reach sufficient speed to cause the SRD to lock if a fall occurs. Working
               on slowly shifting material, such as sand or grain,may not allow enough speed buildup to cause the SRD to lock. A
               clear path is required to assure positive locking of the SRD.

         •     Free Fall: When used correctly with the SRD anchored directly overhead and no slack in the lifeline, SRDs will limit the free
               fall distance to 0 ft. (0 cm)1. To avoid increased fall distances, do not work above the anchorage level. Do not lengthen
               SRDs by connecting a lanyard or similar component without consulting 3M. Never clamp, knot, or prevent
               the lifeline from retracting or staying taut. Avoid slack line.

         •     Swing Falls: Swing Falls occur when the anchorage point is not directly above the point where a fall occurs. The
               force of striking an object in a swing fall may cause serious injury (see Figure 3A). Minimize swing falls by working as
               directly below the anchorage point as possible (Figure 3B).

         •     Fall Clearance: Figures 3B and 3C illustrate Fall Clearance. Table 1 specifies Minimum Fall Clearance (FC) for falls from a
               standing position where the SRD is anchored directly overhead (Figure 3B). Falls from a kneeling or crouching position will
               require an additional 3 ft (1 m) of Fall Clearance. In swing fall situations (Figure 3C), the total vertical fall distance will
               be greater than if the user had fallen directly below the anchorage point and requires additional Fall Clearance. Figure
               4 and the accompanying table define the Maximum Work Radius (C) for various SRD Anchorage Heights (A) and Fall
               Clearances (B). The Recommended Work Zone is limited to the area located within the Maximum Work Radius.

         •     Hazards: Use of this equipment in areas where surrounding hazards exist may require additional precautions to reduce the
               possibility of injury to the user or damage to the equipment. Hazards may include, but are not limited to: high heat, caustic
               chemicals, corrosive environments, high voltage power lines, explosive or toxic gases, moving machinery, or overhead materials
               that may fall and contact the user or fall arrest system. Avoid working where your lifeline may cross or tangle with that of another
               worker. Avoid working where an object may fall and strike the lifeline; resulting in loss of balance or damage to the lifeline. Do not
               allow the lifeline to pass under arms or between legs.

         •     Sharp Edges: Avoid working where the lifeline will be in contact with or abrade against unprotected sharp edges.
               Where contact with a sharp edge is unavoidable, cover the edge with a protective material.




1   Free Fall: Correct application of the SRD, with the user working directly below the anchorage point and no lifeline slack, will eliminate Free Fall. Free Fall should be
      limited to 2 ft (0.6 m) where the user is not directly under the SRD or minimal slack exists in the lifeline.


                                                                                      10


2.0 Use
2.1       FALL PROTECTION AND RESCUE PLAN: The employer must have a Fall Protection and Rescue Plan in place that meets
          ANSI Z359.2 Minimum Requirements for a Comprehensive Managed Fall Protection Program. The plan should provide
          guidelines and requirements for an employer’s managed fall protection program, including policies, duties and training;
          fall protection procedures; eliminating and controlling fall hazards; rescue procedures; incident investigations; and
          evaluating program effectiveness.

2.2       INSPECTION FREQUENCY: SRDs shall be inspected by the authorized person1 or rescuer2 before each use (See Table
          3). Additionally, inspections shall be conducted by a competent person3 other than the user. Extreme working conditions
          (harsh environment, prolonged use, etc.) may necessitate more frequent competent person inspections. The competent
          person shall use the Inspection Schedule (Table 2) to determine appropriate inspection intervals. Inspection procedures
          are described in the Inspection & Maintenance Log (Table 3). Results of the Competent Person inspection should be recorded
          in the Inspection and Maintenance Log or recorded with the Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) system (see Section 5).

2.3       NORMAL OPERATIONS: Normal operation will allow the lifeline to extend and retract with no hesitation or slack as
          the worker moves at normal speeds. If a fall occurs, a speed sensing brake system will activate, stopping the fall and
          absorbing much of the energy created. Sudden or quick movements should be avoided during normal work operation, as
          this may cause the SRD to lock up. For falls which occur near the end of the lifeline travel, a reserve lifeline system or
          Energy Absorber has been incorporated to reduce the fall arrest forces.
2.4       BODY SUPPORT: A Full Body Harness must be used with the Self-Retracting Device. The harness connection point must be
          above the user’s center of gravity. A body belt is not authorized for use with the Self-Retracting Device. If a fall occurs when
          using a body belt it may cause unintentional release or physical trauma from improper body support.

2.5       COMPATIBILITY OF COMPONENTS: Unless otherwise noted, 3M equipment is designed for use with 3M approved
          components and subsystems only. Substitutions or replacements made with non approved components or subsystems may
          jeopardize compatibility of equipment and may affect safety and reliability of the complete system.

2.6       COMPATIBILITY OF CONNECTORS: Connectors are considered to be compatible with connecting elements when they
          have been designed to work together in such a way that their sizes and shapes do not cause their gate mechanisms to
          inadvertently open regardless of how they become oriented. Contact 3M if you have any questions about compatibility.
          Connectors (hooks, carabiners, and D-rings) must be capable of supporting at least 5,000 lbs. (22.2 kN). Connectors
          must be compatible with the anchorage or other system components. Do not use equipment that is not compatible.
          Non-compatible connectors may unintentionally disengage (see Figure 5). Connectors must be compatible in size, shape,
          and strength. Self-locking snap hooks and carabiners are required. If the connecting element to which a snap hook or
          carabiner attaches is undersized or irregular in shape, a situation could occur where the connecting element applies a
          force to the gate of the snap hook or carabiner (A). This force may cause the gate to open (B), allowing the snap hook or
          carabiner to disengage from the connecting point (C).

2.7       MAKING CONNECTIONS: Snap hooks and carabiners used with this equipment must be self-locking. Ensure all
          connections are compatible in size, shape and strength. Do not use equipment that is not compatible. Ensure all
          connectors are fully closed and locked. 3M connectors (snap hooks and carabiners) are designed to be used only as
          specified in each product’s user’s instructions. See Figure 6 for examples of inappropriate connections. Do not connect
          snap hooks and carabiners:

          A.    To a D-ring to which another connector is attached.
          B.    In a manner that would result in a load on the gate. Large throat snap hooks should not be connected to standard
                size D-rings or similar objects which will result in a load on the gate if the hook or D-ring twists or rotates, unless the
                snap hook is equipped with a 3,600 lb (16 kN) gate.
          C.    In a false engagement, where size or shape of the mating connectors are not compatible and, without visual
                confirmation, the connectors seem fully engaged.
          D.    To each other.
          E.    Directly to webbing or rope lanyard or tie-back (unless the manufacturer’s instructions for both the lanyard and
                connector specifically allows such a connection).
          F.    To any object which is shaped or dimensioned such that the snap hook or carabiner will not close and lock, or that
                roll-out could occur.
          G.    In a manner that does not allow the connector to align properly while under load.

1    Authorized Person: A person assigned by the employer to perform duties at a location where the person will be exposed to a fall hazard.
2    Rescuer: Person or persons other than the rescue subject acting to perform an assisted rescue by operation of a rescue system.
3    Competent Person: An individual designated by the employer to be responsible for the immediate supervision, implementation, and monitoring of the employer’s
       managed fall protection program who, through training and knowledge, is capable of identifying, evaluating, and addressing existing and potential fall hazards, and
       who has the employer’s authority to take prompt corrective action with regard to such hazards.


                                                                                     11


3.0 Installation
3.1   PLANNING: Plan your fall protection system before starting your work. Account for all factors that may affect your safety
      before, during, and after a fall. Consider all requirements and limitations defined in this manual.

3.2   ANCHORAGE: Figure 7 illustrates typical SRL anchorage connections. The anchorage (A) should be directly overhead
      to minimize Free Fall and Swing Fall hazards (see Section 1.4). Select a rigid anchorage point capable of sustaining the
      static loads defined in Section 1.4. The Swivel Eye on the SRL is equipped with a Carabiner (B). Attach the Carabiner
      directly to the anchorage structure (rebar, angle iron, etc.), a Tie-Off Adaptor (C), or Anchorage Connection Point (D).

3.3   HARNESS CONNECTION: A Full Body Harness is required for Fall Arrest applications. Connect the Snap Hook (A) on
      the SRL Lifeline to the Back Dorsal D-Ring (B) on the Full Body Harness. (see Figure 8). For situations such as ladder
      climbing, it may be useful to connect to the front Sternal D-Ring. Consult the harness manufacturer’s instructions for
      details regarding use of the harness connection points.


4.0 OPERATION

       ;  First time or infrequent users of Smart Lock Connected Self-Retracting Lifelines (SRLs) should review the
       “Safety Information” at the beginning of this manual prior to use of the SRL.

4.1   ON-BOARD USER INTERFACE: The Smart Lock Connected Self-Retracting Lifeline (SRL) has an On-Board User Interface
      with Push Buttons, LED Indicator Lights, and an Audible Buzzer for checking the status of the SRL (see Figure 9).
      Additional wireless connectivity enables communication of status and usage data to the 3M Connected Equipment app on
      a Bluetooth mobile device. These electronic functions provide users and on-site safety professionals feedback during and
      after use of the SRL.

       ;   Feedback provided from the electronics on the Smart Lock Connected Self-Retracting Lifeline is not a substitute for
       situational awareness and safe work practices. Do not rely on electronic device feedback as a substitute for required
       safety procedures, product inspection, or monitoring of personnel working at height.

      When operating the On-Board User Interface, do not use sharp tools or excessive force to press the Push Buttons. Do not
      attempt to press the three oval shaped LED Indicator Lights.

      •    Power States: The Digital SRL is always powered on if a good battery is installed. There are two Power States:

            Active State      In Active State, the Smart Lock Connected SRL is in a detecting condition. The SRL automatically
                              goes into Active State when the lifeline is extended. Pressing the Power Button (⏻) for at least
                              3 seconds also puts the SRL in Active State. When the SRL enters Active State, all three LED
                              Indicator Lights flash once and the interface emits a multi-toned beep.
            Deep Sleep        Deep Sleep places the Smart Lock Connected SRL in a low power state. Pressing the Power
                              Button (⏻) for at least 3 seconds will switch from Active State to Deep Sleep. When the SRL
                              enters Deep Sleep, the Orange LED Indicator Light flashes twice rapidly and the interface emits a
                              single-tone beep. The SRL will automatically switch into power saving Deep Sleep after a period
                              of non-use, so it is not necessary to press the Power Button after using the SRL.

      •    Battery Condition: Battery state can be checked by pressing the Status Button (         ) and observing the Orange
           LED Indicator Light:

            Good Battery      One rapid flash of the Orange LED Indicator Light and a single audible beep indicates a good
                              battery.
            Low Battery       Ten rapid flashes of the Orange LED Indicator Light indicates a low battery. See “Section 6 -
                              Maintenance, Service, and Storage” for Battery Replacement.

      •    Status Codes: The On-Board User Interface provides indication of conditions that require the SRL be removed from
           service and inspected. Error states can be checked by pressing the Status Button (    ) and observing the LED
           Indicator Lights:

            No Errors         One rapid flash of the Orange LED Indicator Light and a single audible beep indicate there are
                              no conditions that require removal of the SRL from service. Proceed with visual inspection of the
                              SRL before use. See “Table 3 - Inspection and Maintenance Log”.
            Error State       Ten rapid flashes of the Red LED Indicator Light indicate a condition that requires removal of the
                              SRL from service. The SRL must be removed from service, marked “UNUSABLE”, and submitted
                              to an Authorized Service Center for inspection and service.

      •    Bluetooth Connectivity: Wireless connectivity enables communication of status and usage data to the 3M
           Connected Equipment app on a Bluetooth mobile device. For details, contact a 3M Customer Service representative
           (see back cover). When a Bluetooth connection is established, the Blue LED Indicator Light on the On-Board User
           Interface will flash three times.




                                                               12


4.2   BEFORE EACH USE: Before each use of this fall protection equipment carefully inspect it to assure it is in good working
      condition. Check for worn or damaged parts. Ensure all bolts are present and secure. Check that the lifeline is retracting
      properly by pulling out the line and allowing it to slowly retract. If there is any hesitation in retraction the unit should be
      marked as “UNUSABLE” and returned to an authorized service center for service. Inspect the lifeline for cuts, frays, burns,
      crushing and corrosion. Check locking action by pulling sharply on the line. See Section 5 for inspection details. Do not use if
      inspection reveals an unsafe condition.

4.3   AFTER A FALL: Any equipment which has been subjected to the forces of arresting a fall or exhibits damage consistent
      with the effect of fall arrest forces as described in Section 5, must be removed from service immediately, marked as
      “UNUSABLE”, and inspected and serviced as instructed in Sections 5 and 6.

4.4   BODY SUPPORT: A full body harness must be worn when using 3M SRLs. For general fall protection use, connect to
      the back Dorsal D-Ring. For situations such as ladder climbing, it may be useful to connect to the front Sternal D-Ring.
      Consult the harness manufacturer’s instructions for details regarding use of the harness connection points.
4.5   MAKING CONNECTIONS: When using a hook to make a connection, ensure roll-out cannot occur (see Figure 5). Do not
      use hooks or connectors that will not completely close over the attachment object. Do not use non-locking snap hooks.
      The mounting surface should meet the anchorage strength requirements stated in Section 1.4. Follow the manufacturer’s
      instructions supplied with each system component.

4.6   OPERATION: Inspect the SRL as described in Section 5. Connect the SRL to a suitable anchorage or anchorage connector
      as previously described. Connect the Self-Locking Snap Hook on the end of the lifeline to the Dorsal D-Ring on the Full
      Body Harness (see Figure 8). Ensure connections are compatible in size, shape, and strength. Ensure hook is fully closed
      and locked. Once attached, the worker is free to move about within the recommended working area at normal speeds.
      A tag line may be required to extend or retract the lifeline during connection and disconnection operations. A tag line
      can be used to prevent uncontrolled retraction of the lifeline into the SRL. Depending on the work site environment and
      conditions, it may be necessary to restrain the free end of the tag line to prevent interference and entanglement with
      equipment or machinery.


5.0 Inspection
5.1   RFID TAG: The Self-Retracting Lifeline includes a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tag (see Figure 11). The
      RFID tag can be used with the handheld reading device and web based portal to simplify inspection and inventory control
      and provide records for your fall protection equipment. For details, contact a 3M Customer Service representative (see
      back cover). Follow the instructions provided with your handheld reader, or on the web portal, to transfer your data to
      your web log.

5.2   INSPECTION FREQUENCY: The Smart Lock Connected Self-Retracting Lifeline must be inspected at the intervals
      defined in “Section 2.2 - Inspection Frequency”. Inspection procedures are described in the “Inspection & Maintenance
      Log” (Table 3).

       ;   Extreme working conditions (harsh environments, prolonged use, etc.) may require increasing the frequency of
       inspections.

5.3   UNSAFE OR DEFECTIVE CONDITIONS: If inspection reveals an unsafe defective condition, remove the
      Self-Retracting Lifeline from service immediately, mark as “UNUSABLE”, and send to an authorized service center
      for repair.

       ;   Only 3M or parties authorized in writing may make repairs to this equipment.

5.4   PRODUCT LIFE: The functional life of Smart Lock Connected Self-Retracting Lifelines is determined by work conditions
      and maintenance. As long as the product passes inspection criteria, it may remain in service.




                                                                13


6.0 MAINTENANCE, SERVICE, and STORAGE
6.1   CLEANING: Cleaning procedures for the Smart Lock Connected Self-Retracting Lifeline are as follows:

      •      Periodically clean the exterior of the SRL using water and a mild soap solution. Position the SRL so excess water can
             drain out. Clean labels as required.
      •      Clean lifeline with water and mild soap solution. Rinse and thoroughly air dry. Do not force dry with heat. An
             excessive buildup of dirt, paint, etc. may prevent the lifeline from fully retracting back into the housing causing a
             potential free fall hazard.

6.2   BATTERY REPLACEMENT: The Smart Lock Connected Self-Retracting Lifeline is powered by a 9 Volt Battery. Battery life
      will vary with frequency of use and the environmental conditions in which the SRL is used and stored. Under normal use
      conditions, the battery should be replaced annually. Replace discharged batteries promptly.

          ; Lithium Battery: The Lithium Battery used in this device may present a risk of fire or chemical burn if mistreated.
          Do not disassemble, heat above 130° F (54° C) or incinerate. Replace the battery with an equivalent 9V, 1.2 AH Non-
          Rechargeable Lithium Battery. Use of another battery may present risk of fire or explosion.

      Figure 10 illustrates replacement of the battery. To replace the battery:
      1.     Remove the two screws securing the Battery Cover and remove the Battery Cover. Save the screws for reuse.
      2.     Pull the Battery and Battery Connector Wire out of the enclosure, taking care not to damage or pinch the Battery
             Connector Wires.
      3.     Disconnect the Battery from the Battery Connector. Dispose of the Battery properly. Keep away from children. Do not
             disassemble the Battery or burn in a fire for disposal.
      4.     Connect the Battery Connector, observing proper polarity of the battery and connector.
      5.     Insert the Battery into the enclosure with the Battery Connector facing the bottom of the enclosure. Take care not
             to damage or pinch the Battery Connector Wires. When fully inserted, the Battery should sit below the surface of
             the enclosure to allow for proper installation of the Battery Cover. If the Battery is not positioned properly in the
             enclosure, reinsert the Battery, ensuring the Battery Connector Wires are not obstructing proper insertion of the
             Battery.
      6.     Inspect the Battery Cover to ensure the Foam Gasket (A) is present on the inside of the cover and is in good
             condition. Reinstall the Battery Cover and secure with the two screws. Do not overtighten the screws.

Component:                  Inspection:
SRL                         Inspect for loose bolts and bent or damaged parts.
(Figure 12)
                            Inspect Housing (A) for distortion, cracks, or other damage.
                            Inspect the Swivel Eye (B) for distortion, cracks, or other damage. The Swivel Eye should be attached
                            securely to the SRL, but should pivot freely.
                            The Lifeline (C) should pull out and retract fully without hesitation or creating a slack line condition.
                            Ensure device locks up when lifeline is jerked sharply. Lockup should be positive with no slipping.
                            The labels must be present and fully legible (see Figure 15).
                            Look for signs of corrosion on the entire unit.
                            Press the Status Button and observe the LED Indicator Lights for Battery Status and Error Codes (see
                            Section 4.1).
Wire Rope Lifeline          Inspect wire rope for cuts, kinks (A), broken wires (B), bird-caging (C), welding splatter, (D) corrosion,
(Figure 13)                 chemical contact areas, or severely abraded areas. Slide the Cable Bumper (E) up and inspect ferrules
                            (F) for cracks or damage and inspect the wire rope for corrosion and broken wires. Replace the wire
                            rope assembly if there are six or more randomly distributed broken wires in one lay, or three or more
                            broken wires in one strand in one lay. A “lay” of wire rope is the length of wire rope it takes for a
                            strand (the larger groups of wires) to complete one revolution or twist along the rope. Replace the
                            wire rope assembly if there are any broken wires within 1 inch (25 mm) of the ferrules.
                            With the Cable Bumper up, unroll and inspect the the Use Instruction Label (G). The label should be
                            present and fully legible (see Figure 15).
                            Inspect the Reserve Lifeline payout. If a fall has been arrested with most of the lifeline out, the
                            Reserve Lifeline may have been deployed. Pull the lifeline out of the SRL until it stops. If a red band
                            (H) is visible, the Reserve Lifeline is spent and the unit must be serviced by an authorized service
                            center before reuse.
Swivel Snap Hook & Impact   Inspect the Swivel Snap Hook for signs of damage, corrosion, and working condition. Swivel should
Indicator                   rotate freely. Inspect the Impact Indicator. If the Red Band is displayed (Indicated Mode), impact
(Figure 14)                 loading has occurred and the SRL must be removed from service and inspected. Do not attempt to
                            reset the Impact Indicator. Return the SRL to an authorized service center for resetting. NOTE: The
                            Swivel will not turn freely when the Impact Indicator is in Indicated Mode.
