Care & Maintenance; Care Before The Dive; Care During The Dive - Apeks Quantum Owner's Manual

CARE & MAINTENANCE
The Quantum is a tough and durable instrument, but it still needs to be protected
from excessive shock, extreme heat, chemical attack, and tampering.
CAUTION: Do not store the Quantum near chemicals, such as gasoline.
Do not use silicone sprays or any other type of propellants near the
Quantum. Do not clean the computer with alcohol or any other solvents.
Exposing the Quantum to chemicals and solvents may damage the lens
and case.

Care before the dive

The Quantum can withstand the normal bumps associated with SCUBA diving,
however, it cannot withstand the impact of heavy objects, such as a weight belt or
SCUBA cylinder. Do not leave it exposed where someone could accidentally step on
it or drop something on it.

Care during the dive

The most common damage inflicted on a computer while diving is scratches in the
lens. If the Quantum is worn on the wrist, you must be careful when reaching into
rocky holes and crevices to avoid scratching the computer. If you have the Quantum
in a gauge console, secure the gauge close to you body so the gauge doesn't get
dragged over coral and rocks. It is highly recommended that you purchase a third-
party gauge retainer and secure the console to your buoyancy compensator.
