FAQs

How many scratch guards are included in the package?

Each package includes two scratch guards.

Can I still use the touchscreen and fingerprint scanner with the guard applied?

Yes, the scratch guard is designed to maintain full touchscreen functionality and compatibility with fingerprint scanners.

What is the material of the scratch guard?

The scratch guard is made of a transparent material designed for display protection.

Is this scratch guard compatible with other Suunto dive computer models?

No, this scratch guard is specifically designed and compatible only with the Suunto D5 dive computer.

How do I remove the scratch guard if needed?

Carefully lift an edge of the scratch guard with a fingernail or a plastic card and slowly peel it off the screen.

Does the scratch guard offer protection against impacts?

The primary function of this guard is to protect against scratches and minor abrasions. It is not designed to provide significant protection against hard impacts.

Troubleshooting

Air bubbles under the scratch guard after application.

Gently lift the edge of the scratch guard near the bubble using an adhesive tape (like Scotch tape) and carefully reapply it, smoothing out the bubble as you go. If bubbles persist, consider replacing the guard with the second one from the pack.

Scratch guard is not sticking properly.

Ensure the dive computer's screen was perfectly clean and dry before application. Try re-aligning and firmly pressing down on the edges. If it continues to peel, the adhesive may be compromised, and it's best to use the second guard.

Touchscreen responsiveness is reduced.

Ensure the scratch guard is applied smoothly without wrinkles or creases. Verify that no debris is trapped between the guard and the screen. If the issue persists, the guard might be misaligned or there might be an internal issue with the device.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:

This scratch guard is specifically designed for the Suunto D5 dive computer.

Setup Instructions:

  1. Clean the Display: Thoroughly clean the Suunto D5 screen with the provided cleaning cloth (or a lint-free cloth) to remove any dust, smudges, or debris. Ensure the screen is completely dry.
  2. Align the Guard: Carefully align the scratch guard with the edges of the Suunto D5 display. The included applicator can assist with precise placement.
  3. Apply the Guard: Slowly peel off the backing from the scratch guard while simultaneously applying it to the screen. Press down gently from the center outwards to eliminate air bubbles.

Care Instructions:

To clean the scratch guard, use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can damage the protective layer. If the scratch guard becomes heavily scratched or damaged, it is recommended to replace it with a new one from the package.
