6. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
This Suunto dive computer is a sophisticated precision instrument. Though designed
to withstand the rigors of scuba diving, you must treat it with proper care and caution
as any other precision instrument.
6.1. CARE OF YOUR STINGER
NEVER try to open the case of the Stinger or to remove the buttons.
NEVER try to open the depth sensor cover.
Every two years or after 500 dives (whichever comes first) have your
Stinger serviced by an authorized dealer or distributor. This service will
include cleaning of the unit, a general operational check, replacement of
the battery and a water resistance check and if needed, replacement of the
seals, buttons, spring bars, mineral crystal or bezel. The service requires
special tools and training. It is advisable to contact an authorized SUUNTO
dealer or distributor for this biennial service. Do not attempt to do any
service that you are not sure about how to do.
Should moisture appear inside the Stinger have it checked immediately by
your SUUNTO dealer or distributor.
Should you detect scratches, cracks or other such flaws on the mineral
crystal window that may impair its durability, have it replaced immediately
by your SUUNTO dealer or distributor.
