1.3. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Only perform the procedures described in this manual. Never attempt to disassemble
or service your Suunto t6. Protect your Suunto t6 from shocks, extreme heat and
prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. If not in use, store your Suunto t6 in a clean
and dry environment at room temperature.
Your Suunto t6 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 your Suunto t6 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. Keep the area around the sensor free of dirt and sand.
Never insert any objects into the sensor opening.
1.4. WATER RESISTANCE
Your Suunto t6 is water resistant up to 100 m/330 ft. and the transmitter belt to 20m/
66ft. according to ISO 2281 standard (www.iso.ch). This means that you can use
Suunto t6 for swimming and other water sports activities but it should not be used for
scuba diving or freediving.
To maintain water resistance and to ensure that the warranty remains valid, it is
strongly recommended to have all service, except for battery change, to be done by
authorized Suunto service personnel.
NOTE: Do not push the buttons while swimming or in contact with water under any
circumstances. Deliberate or unintentional pressing of the buttons while the unit is
submerged could cause the unit to malfunction.
NOTE: Despite the fact that both the Suunto t6 and the transmitter belt are water
resistant, the radio signal does not carry in water making communication between
Suunto t6 and the transmitter belt impossible.
