N. The Battery
a. Battery life
A new battery installed in this watch will last approximately 2 years.
Standard usage conditions
Number of dives: 50 dives/year
Duration of dives: 1 hour
The life of the battery depends on the use frequency of the alarms or other
functions. Moreover, if the watch is wet in a situation other than diving, the
water sensor is activated, which reduces the battery lifetime, so take care.
b. The original battery
The battery in the watch at the time of purchase is one used to test the function
and performance of the watch. Please be aware that this battery may not last
for the 2 years estimated for normal batteries.
