9. CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Care of the Suunto G6

Only perform the procedures described in this manual. Never attempt to disassemble

or service your Suunto G6. Protect it from shocks, extreme heat and prolonged expo-

sure to direct sunlight. Avoid rubbing your Suunto G6 against rough surfaces as this

may scratch the face. When not in use store it in a clean, dry environment at room

there are persistent stains or marks, you may apply mild soap to the area. Do not

expose your Suunto G6 to strong chemicals such as gasoline, cleaning solvents, ace-

seals, case and finish.

overpressure test was conducted.

This means that you cannot dive to a depth of 30 m/100 ft. with your Suunto G6. Rain,

showering, swimming and other normal exposure to water will not affect Suunto G6's

operation. However, under any circumstances do not press the buttons under water.
