Galileo SOL Manual - Scubapro

5. Taking care of Galileo
- Store it in a cool and dry place. Do not
store it in a damp environment, in nonbreathable
material (such as a plastic
bag) or with conductive material such as
a wet towel.
- Keep it clean: use a mild soap and
water solution, and dry it with a soft
towel. Never use alcohol or any abrasive
material such as steel wool or cleaning
chemicals.
- Keep it out of extreme heat and extreme
cold. Operating temperatures are -10°C
to 50°C/14°F to 122°F.
- Do not expose it to direct sunlight for
extended periods, such as by leaving it
in a car.
- Do not bend or stretch the transmitter,
as this may damage the electrodes.
- Do not dry it with anything other than a
soft towel. Mishandling may damage the
electrodes
5.2.1 Replacing the battery in Galileo
WARNING
We recommend having the battery of Galileo
replaced by an authorized SCUBAPRO UWATEC
dealer. The change must be made with particular
care in order to prevent water from seeping in.
The warranty does not cover damages due to
an improper placement of the battery.
Galileo stores the tissue saturation information
in non-volatile memory, so the battery can be
replaced at any time between dives without
loss of information.
Procedure:
To replace the battery you need a coin or
the dedicated tool that came with Galileo
and a clean cloth.
1. Dry Galileo with a soft towel.
2. Unscrew the battery cap using a coin
or the dedicated tool.
3. Inspect the o-ring on the battery
cap. If you see traces of seeping
water, damages or defects on the
o-ring, replace the o-ring with an
original UWATEC replacement part
(PN 06.202.693). The o-ring is provided
with the UWATEC battery kit for Galileo
(PN 06.202.872). When replacing the
o-ring, make sure the new o-ring is in
perfect condition and well lubricated,
and that the o-ring, o-ring groove and
sealing surfaces are free of dust and
dirt.
4. Remove the old battery and dispose of
it in an environmentally friendly way.
5. Check the polarity of the new battery.
Galileo can be damaged if you do not
insert the battery correctly. Insert the
battery so that the + side is pointing
out of the battery case.
6. Screw the battery cap back in place.
Turn the cap until it is fl ush with the
surface and the slot on the battery
cap is aligned with the mark on the
housing. Damage to Galileo due to
improper placement of the battery cap
is not covered by warranty.
