1.8. REPLACING THE BATTERY OF THE TRANSMITTER BELT
The transmitter belt operates on a 3-Volt lithium cell, type: CR 2032. The average
expected battery life of the transmitter belt is 300 hours of use in ideal operating
temperatures.
If your Suunto t6 is not receiving a signal when the transmitter belt is active, you might
need to replace the battery.
To replace the battery:
1. Insert a coin into the slot located on the battery compartment cover on the backside
of the transmitter belt.
2. Turn the coin counterclockwise until it is aligned with the open position marker, or
even slightly further for easy opening.
3. Remove the battery compartment cover. Ensure that the O ring and all surfaces are
clean and dry. Do not stretch the O ring.
4. Carefully remove the old battery.
5. Place the new battery into the battery compartment with the positive side facing up.
NOTE: Suunto recommends that the battery cover and the O ring are changed simul-
taneously with the battery to ensure that the transmitter remains clean and water
resistant. Replacement covers are available with replacement batteries.
