EVAS™ operators are required to perform regular inspections, to assure their units are in proper working order.
Checks to be Performed by EVAS™ Customers:
Position and Location Check
The owner, operator or designee shall visually check EVAS™ for general condition, security, and position in the cockpit.
Blower and Battery Check
The EVAS™ system must be given a blower and battery check to ensure proper battery voltage and blower motor operation. The span between checks should not exceed 90 days.
In addition to the checks performed by EVAS™ customers, biennial service is required to maintain the serviceability of the units. This service, as explained in the next section, cannot be performed by the customer.

- Service That Cannot be Performed by EVAS™ Customers: The EVAS™ warranty is void if systems are not serviced in accordance with required service periods.

-
- the integrity of the EVAS™ container has been compromised;
