16. CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Only perform the procedures described in this manual. Never disassemble your
Suunto X9. Protect it from shocks, extreme heat and prolonged exposure to direct
sunlight. If not in use, store your Suunto X9 in a clean and dry environment at room
temperature.

Wipe your Suunto X9 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 it 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.

16.1. Water resistance

Suunto X9 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 X9
for swimming or other water sport 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 X9 may disturb
the satellite signal reception.
