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
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 gas nitrox settings
also revert back to default settings (Mix1 21% O
2
, 1.4 bar PO
2
, Mix2 OFF, Mix2-Mix8
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.
