8.3. Maintenance
If left without care for an extended period, a thin film, often invisible to the naked eye,
will cover the unit. Much like the build-up on the glass of an aquarium, this film is the
result of organic contaminants found in both salt and fresh water. Suntan oil, silicone
spray and grease will speed up this process. As a result of this build-up, moisture will
be trapped next to the water contacts and will prevent your Suunto D9 from operating
properly.
The water contacts can be cleaned with a small brush (e.g. toothbrush).
