1.2 CARE AND MAINTENANCE 1.2.1 Care of the Suunto Observer
Only perform the procedures described in this manual. Never attempt to disassemble or service your Suunto Observer. Protect your Suunto Observer from shocks, extreme heat and prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Avoid rubbing the Suunto Observer against rough surfaces as this may scratch the face. If not in use, your Suunto Observer should be stored in a clean, dry environment at room temperature.
The Suunto Observer can be wiped 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 the Suunto Observer to strong chemicals such as gasoline, cleaning solvents, acetone, alcohol, insect repellents, adhesives and paint, as they will damage the unit’s seals, case and finish. Make sure the area around the sensor is kept free of dirt and sand. Never insert any objects into the sensor opening.
