3.11 GPS
Suunto Kailash makes use of the GPS navigation satellite system.
GPS is on by default and is used for many key features of Suunto
Kailash, such as time and location updates and the 7R logbook.
However, you can turn GPS off if needed in the options menu under
LOCATION » GPS.
GPS signal reception can vary significantly depending on where you
are in the world and your immediate surroundings.
The best signal can be received in an open area with a clear view of
the sky.
Buildings, dense vegetation or cloudy weather, however, reduce the
GPS signal reception quality. The signal from the orbiting satellites
is weak, so it cannot penetrate any solid constructions or water.
Therefore, while you in your home, office or some other building,
the GPS reception on your watch typically does not work.

The weather trend indicator is comprised of two lines forming an
arrow. Each line represents a 3-hour period. A change in barometric
pressure greater than 2 hPa (0.59 inHg) over three hours triggers a
change the direction of the arrow. For example:
pressure dropping heavily over the last six hours
pressure was steady, but rising heavily over the last
three hours
pressure was rising heavily, but dropping heavily
over the last three hours
Storm alarm
A significant drop in barometric pressure typically means a storm is
coming and you should take cover. When the storm alarm is active.
Suunto Kailash sounds an alarm and flashes a storm symbol when
the pressure drops 4 hPa (0.12 inHg) or more during a 3-hour
period.
When a storm alarm sounds, pressing any button ends the alarm. If
no button is pressed, the alarm repeats once after five minutes. The
29
storm symbol remains on the display until the weather conditions
stabilize (pressure drop slows down).

4 CARE AND SUPPORT
4.1 Handling guidelines
Handle the unit with care – do not knock or drop it.
Under normal circumstances, the watch does not require servicing.
On a regular basis, rinse it with fresh water, mild soap, and carefully
clean the housing with a moist, soft cloth or chamois.
Use only original Suunto accessories - damage caused by nonoriginal accessories is not covered by warranty.
4.2 Water resistance
Suunto Kailash is water resistant to 100 meters (330 feet). The
meter value relates to an actual diving depth and is tested in the
water pressure used in the course of the Suunto water resistance
test. This means you can use the watch for swimming and
snorkeling, but it should not be used for any form of diving.
NOTE: Water resistance is not equivalent to functional
operating depth. The water resistance marking refers to static air/
water tightness withstanding showering, bathing, swimming,
poolside diving and snorkeling.
To maintain water resistance, it is recommended to:
•
never use the device for other than intended use.
•
contact an authorized Suunto service, distributor or retailer for
any repairs.
•
keep the device clean from dirt and sand.
31
•
never attempt to open the case yourself.
•
avoid subjecting the device to rapid air and water temperature
changes.
•
always clean your device with fresh water if subjected to salt
water.
•
never knock or drop the device.
