Suunto X10 [8/98] Water resistance

1.3. WATER RESISTANCE

Suunto X10 is water resistant. Its water resistance is tested to 100m/330ft according to

ISO 2281 standard (www.iso.ch). This means that you can use the Suunto X10 for

swimming or other water sports activities but it should not be used for scuba diving or

freediving.

NOTE: Do not push the buttons under any circumstances while swimming or in

contact with water. Deliberate or unintentional depression of the buttons while the unit

is submerged could cause the unit to malfunction.

NOTE: Large amounts of water and dirt under the cover of Suunto X10 may disturb

the satellite signal reception.

1.4. CHARGING THE BATTERY

Suunto X10 is equipped with an internal rechargeable battery. You can recharge the

battery approximately 500 times. The life expectancy of a single charge can range

from 6 hours (with heavy usage of the GPS, backlight, compass and data storage

functions) to over 2 months if you only use Time and/or Alti/Baro mode.

When the battery level indicator on the display reaches the red zone, the battery

voltage is low and you should recharge the battery.

Do not attempt to replace the battery, as this will void warranty. Take your Suunto X10

to an authorized Suunto dealer for a battery replacement.

You can charge the battery with the included mains charger (universal mains voltage),

through your PC’s USB connector.

WARNING: This Suunto product contains a Li-ion battery. To reduce the risk of fire or

burns, do not disassemble, crush, puncture, short external contacts or dispose of in

fire or water. The battery should only be replaced by Suunto Service. Recycle or

dispose of used batteries properly.
