Your Suunto t3 operates on a 3-Volt lithium cell, type: CR 2032. The life expectancy is approximately 12 months of operation with an average of 4 hours of training a week. The higher your average amount of training hours a week, the shorter the battery's life expectancy will be.

NOTE

To reduce the risk of fire or burns, do not crush, puncture or dispose of

 

used batteries in fire or water. Only replace them with manufacturer-

 

specified batteries. Recycle or dispose of used batteries properly.

5.4.1. Replacing the battery of the Suunto t3

To replace the battery:

1.Use a coin to open the battery compartment on the back of your device. Ensure that the O ring and all surfaces are clean and dry.

2.Remove the old battery.

3.Place the new battery into the battery compartment with the positive side facing up.

4.Slide the battery gently against the contact plate on the side, ensuring that it does not break or bend out of place.

5.When replacing the cover, rotate it carefully counter-clockwise with your thumb in order to align the threads. The cover should rotate easily at first without having to use force. If you have to use force right at the start, the threads are misaligned and the threads may be damaged.

6.Perform the final tightening with a suitably sized coin.

NOTE

The markings on the cover may be left unaligned once the cover has been

 

tightened. If the old cover is undamaged, it does not need to be replaced.
