9. BATTERY REPLACEMENT

NOTE

It is advisable to contact an authorized Suunto representative for

 

battery replacement. It is imperative that the change is made in a

 

proper manner to avoid any leakage of water into the battery

 

compartment or computer.

CAUTION

Defects caused by improper battery installation are not covered by

 

the warranty.

CAUTION

When the battery is changed, all nitrogen and oxygen uptake data is

 

lost. Therefore, the no-fly time shown by the computer should have

 

reached zero or you must wait for 48 hours, or preferably up to 100

 

hours, before you dive again.

All history and profile data, as well as the altitude, personal, and alarm settings, will remain in the dive computer memory after the battery change. However, the clock time and time alarm settings are lost. In the NITROX mode, the nitrox settings also revert back to default settings (MIX1 21% O2, 1.4 bar PO2, MIX2 OFF).

When working with the battery compartment, cleanliness is extremely important. Even the smallest dirt particles may cause a leakage when you dive.

9.1. Battery kit

The battery kit includes a 3.0 V coin type lithium cell battery and a lubricated O ring. When handling the battery do not make contact with both of the poles at the same time. Do not touch the surfaces of the battery with your bare fingers.

9.2. Required tools

•A Phillips-head screwdriver.

•Soft cloth for cleaning.

•Needlenose pliers or small screwdriver for turning securing ring.

9.3. Replacing the battery

The battery and the buzzer are located in the back of the instrument in a separate compartment. To change the battery:

1.Unscrew the four screws at the back of the elastomer console and remove the back cover of the console.

2.Thoroughly rinse and dry the computer.

3.Open the securing ring of the battery compartment lid by pushing it down and rotating it clockwise. You may use a pointed nose pliers or a small screwdriver as an aid in the rotating. Put the pliers ends into the holes of the securing ring or the screwdriver onto the side of the right tooth on the ring and turn the ring clockwise. Be careful not to damage any of the parts.

4.Remove the ring.

5.Carefully remove the lid with the beeper attached to it. You can remove the lid by pressing with your finger on the outermost edge of the lid while simultaneously pulling with your nail at the opposite side. Don't use sharp metal objects as they might damage the O-ring or the sealing surfaces.

6.Remove the O-ring and the battery retainer.

7.Carefully remove the battery. Do not damage the electrical contacts or the sealing surface.

8.Check for any traces of flooding, particularly between the beeper and the lid, or for any other damage. In case of a leak or any other damage, bring the dive computer to an authorized SUUNTO dealer or distributor for check and repair.
