POWER SUPPLY
The F10 utilizes (1) 3 volt CR2430 Lithium Battery.
The F10 checks Battery voltage every 2 minutes during opera-
tion while on the surface.
• If voltage decreases to the Warning level (2.75 volts), the
Battery icon will appear on Surface display screens (Fig.
2a) as an indication that the Battery should be changed
prior to commencing a series of dives.
• If voltage decreases to the Alarm level (2.50 volts), the
Battery icon will flash and operation will automatically
revert to Main Time screen. The F10 would then only
operate in Watch modes until the Battery becomes
completely depleted at about 2.35 volts.
• Low Battery Warning/Alarm conditions are not displayed
during Dive Modes.
• If a Low Battery Condition was not displayed prior to
starting a Dive, and a Low Battery Condition occurs
during the dive, there will be sufficient Battery power to
maintain operation for the remainder of that dive. Upon
surfacing, the message CHNG >> BATT will scroll (Fig. 3),
then operation will automatically revert to the Main Time
screen and only operate in Watch modes until the Battery
becomes completely depleted at about 2.35 volts.
