Suunto wristop computers and transmitter belts are tested with ISO (International Organization for standardization)
standard 2281 (www.iso.ch). This means that the products are water-resistant. In addition to the term 'water-resistant'
Suunto wristop computers are marked with an indication of a test overpressure given as a depth in meters (30m/100ft) and transmitter belts (20m / 66 ft). This indication, however, does not correspond to a diving depth but refers to the pressure at which the water overpressure test was conducted.
This means that you cannot dive to a depth of 30m/100ft with your Suunto wristop computer or 20m / 66 ft with the transmitter belt.
Rain, shower, swimming and other normal exposure to water will not affect its operation but the buttons shall not be
pressed if exposed to water in any circumstances.
