How to recharge the Battery
The RATIO iX3M has a Li-Ion rechargeable battery without memory effect, with an autonomy of 20-40 diving hours.
The autonomy data which are shown can change of +/- 15% depending on the environmental temperature, the device
settings, the installed applications, the operative system version, the back light setting and the use of its inner (GPS -
Bluetooth) or external (Analyser, Transmitter) peripheral devices.
ATTENTION: A complete charge cycle is necessary before the device first use.
The recharge is to be carried out by connecting the device to your PC by its USB cable or connecting it at any USB port
To recharge the RATIO iX3M we recommend to use a wall USB plug (like the one of your mobile/tablet).
If you decide to use a PC USB plug (deprecated), make sure that the PC doesn’t interrupt the electricity flow once in stand-by.
Even if the RATIO iX3M has a new generation battery without memory effect, we recommend to recharge the battery
completely, anyway.
The average recharge time is 4-5 hours depending on the residual charge level.
Attention: It is suggested to not dive if the computer shows <30% of battery.
Do not dive if the computer shows <20% battery.
