[. . . ] Because of this, it uses a lot of battery power and must be recharged periodically, much like other devices such as cell phones or walkie-talkies. Your Suunto n3i should function fully for a few days on a single charge. The amount of time the battery lasts between charging sessions varies depending on a number of factors, including which watch face you are using, which channel Suunto n3i displays most of the time, the strength of the broadcast signal, and the amount of information that you receive. To extend the battery life between charging sessions: · Stay on the Time channel unless you are viewing content on another channel. Some channels rotate new information through the screen continually, even when you are not looking, which consumes battery power. If you are outside a reception area or not interested in receiving information, you can turn the radio off and your Suunto n3i stops looking for a broadcast signal. Suunto n3i maintains your current information for a long time, but the Suunto n3i screen is blank and the instrument receives no additional information. BATTERY LEVEL INDICATOR Different watch faces have different ways to display the battery level Here are some examples of possible battery level indicators: · Percentage: The battery level percentage is displayed in a circle on the screen. 21 When the battery is fully charged, it is at 100%. · Area: An asymmetric battery level area is displayed on the screen. · Vertical bar: A battery level bar that consists of five blocks is displayed on the screen. The following table describes how Suunto n3i responds at different battery charge levels. Battery level 30% 20% Suunto n3i response The low battery indicator ( ) appears. A notification message appears. CHARGING THE BATTERY If your Suunto n3i has a remaining battery charge of 30% or less, you should charge it as soon as possible. The message "CHARGED" is displayed when the battery is fully charged. To reduce the risk of fire or burns, do not disassemble, crush, puncture, short external contacts, or dispose of in fire or water. Note: You can also charge your Suunto n3i directly from your PC via the USB cable but first you need to install the USB software. The USB software installation package is on the CD delivered with your Suunto n3i. SUUNTO n3i USB DRIVER The Suunto n3i USB driver is compatible with Windows 2000 and XP operating systems.
