Care And Cleaning; Service; Module Removal From A Boot; Battery Replacement - Aqua Lung i300C Owner's Manual

CARE AND CLEANING

Protect your i300C from shock, excessive temperatures, exposure to chemicals, and tampering. Protect the lens
against scratches with an Instrument Lens Protector. Small scratches will naturally disappear underwater.
• Soak and rinse the i300C in fresh water at the end of each day of diving, and check to ensure that the areas
around the Low Pressure (Depth) Sensor, PC Interface Data Port, and buttons are free of debris or obstructions.
• To dissolve salt crystals, use lukewarm water or a slightly acidic bath (50% white vinegar/50% fresh water). After
removal from the bath, place the i300C under gently running fresh water. Towel dry before storing.
• Keep your i300C cool, dry, and protected during transport.

SERVICE

WARNING: At a minimum, annually check the altitude reading on the ALT 2 screen (p. 18, 64) and
!
Pre-Dive Planner (p. 63) for accuracy. If your i300C is ever out of calibration (incorrect elevation reading,
incorrect No Deco Dive Times in the planner, or showing a depth reading at the surface) or displays an er-
ror code message (EEP, ALT, CAL, ERR, CSM, A-D), it must be serviced at the factory before use.
If required to return your i300C to the USA factory:
• Obtain an RA (Return Authorization) number by contacting http://www.aqualung.com/us/support/contact-us or
(760) 597-5000
• Record all dive data in the Log and/or download the data stored in memory. All data will be erased during factory
service.
• Package it using a protective cushioning material.
• Include a legible note stating the specific reason for return, your name, address, daytime phone number, serial
number(s), and a copy of your original sales receipt and Warranty Registration.
• Send freight prepaid and insured using a traceable method.
• Non-warranty service must be prepaid. COD is not accepted.
• Additional information is available on the Aqua Lung web site AquaLung.com or on the local Aqua Lung web site
that serves your global region.
CAUTION: The procedures that follow must be closely adhered to. Damage due to improper battery
!
replacement is not covered by the i300C's warranty.

MODULE REMOVAL FROM A BOOT

If the module is in a console, bend the rubber console boot back to expose the edge of the module. If the boot is
flexible enough to permit, you may bend it back far enough to scoop the module out with your finger. Otherwise,
it may be necessary to insert a blunt screwdriver until the tip rests just underneath the module. DO NOT pry the
module from the console! Slowly increase the pressure under the module by releasing the tension on the rubber
boot. The module will slide up the screwdriver and exit the console.
If the module is in a wrist boot, it will be necessary to peel the lips of the boot downward off the module while ap-
plying pressure from underneath, working it out slowly.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

NOTE: When the battery is removed, settings and calculations for repetitive dives are retained in the
unit's memory while a new battery is installed.
The battery compartment should only be opened in a dry and clean environment with extreme care taken to
prevent the entrance of moisture or dust. To prevent formation of moisture in the battery compartment, it is recom-
mended that the battery be changed in an environment equivalent to the local outdoor temperature and humidity
(e.g., do not change the battery in an air conditioned environment, then take it outside during a hot sunny day).
