Important information
The iClimber is a high quality measuring device with several functions that
you can influence and also some that can not be influenced because they
run in the background (e.g. pressure measurement). Please be aware that
active use of each additional function requires energy and therewith battery.
Often activating the backlight, using the Key-Tone, the compass for bearings
or the peers also draws power from the battery and this has a direct influence
on the battery life.
If you are going on an expedition during which you will be intensely using the
watch and exposing yourself and your equipment to very cold temperatures
we strongly recommend taking along replacement batteries (Type CR2032).
The watch battery, if the watch is simply used as a wristwatch, has a lifetime
of up to one year. The repeated use of several functions can reduce the
battery lifetime by a few months!
