8. CARE AND MAINTENANCE

8.1. CARE OF THE SUUNTO G3

Only perform the procedures described in this manual. Never attempt to disassemble or service your Suunto G3. Protect it from shocks, extreme heat and prolonged expo- sure to direct sunlight. If not in use, store it in a clean, dry environment at room tem- perature.

You can wipe your Suunto G3 clean with a lightly moistened (warm water) cloth. If there are stubborn stains or marks, you can apply mild soap to the area. Do not expose your Suunto G3 to strong chemicals such as gasoline, cleaning solvents, ace- tone, alcohol, insect repellents, adhesives and paint, as they will damage the unit's seals, case and finish.

8.2. WATER RESISTANCE

Suunto G3 is tested with ISO (International Organization for standardization, www.iso.ch) standard 2281. This means that it is water-resistant. In addition to the term ‘water resistant’, Suunto G3 is marked with an indication of a test overpressure given as a depth in meters (100 m/330 feet). This, however, does not correspond to a diving depth but refers to the pressure at which the water overpressure test was con- ducted.

This means that you cannot dive to a depth of 100 m/330 ft. with your Suunto G3. Rain, showering, swimming and other normal exposure to water will not affect its operation. However, do not press the buttons under water under any circumstances.

NOTE: Suunto G3 wristop computers are not meant for diving.
