G.divers Communication Units
• Talk slowly and clearly

C
autioN
• Do not get the headset wet
• Do not put the unit underwater, it will not
function as an underwater unit
• Do not attempt to keep the PTT button permanently
depressed! You will not be able to receive messages
from the divers and you may damage the unit.
INSTALLING/REPLACING THE BATTERY
GSM G.divers works with a conventional 9V alkaline battery.
Do not use manganese batteries.
• Unscrew the two screws on the cover and remove
the cover and cap with its O-ring.
• Remove the dead battery from the main compartment.
• Install a new battery in the compartment, making sure that
the polarity is correct (see label on the inside).
• Clean and lubricate the O-ring. Reposition the cap as indicated in figure below.
The cap MUST face the right direction. The flat side of the battery cap must be on
the rear side (when wearing the mask with the GSM) in order to get a good seal.
• Holding the cap in position, position the cover and screw the two screws
in place until they are tight. DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN the screws!

Cover
When the battery has been installed, check that the battery housing and
O-ring are clean. The O-ring must always be lubricated with a thin layer of silicone
lubricant.
A screwdriver for G.divers units battery installing/replacing is provided in the
com unit package.
If the units are not going to be used for a while, the battery should be
removed. The cap must be stored into the battery compartment. This will
ensure that the unit will work properly for a longer period of time.

after use. The system must be kept completely dry and in good condition.
O-ring
• Do not twist the microphone cable.
• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight.
Battery housing • Do not leave the unit in your car.
• Do not keep the unit in places that are too hot or
too cold, such as near air conditioners.
• Do not keep the unit near magnetic fields.
• Do not allow it to fall or be knocked around.
• Replace the battery when it is running low. When not using the unit for extended
periods of time, remove the battery from its housing to prevent damage.

• Only use 9V alkaline batteries. Install them in the battery housing,
ensuring that they are of the correct charge and polarity. Do not
activate the polarity circuit using metal wires or pieces of metal.
• Make sure there is no dirt, debris or water in any part of the unit, especially in the
battery housing or under the O-ring. If any dirt, debris or water is found, remove it.
N
ote
• When replacing the battery check the O-ring for damage. If it is damaged,
replace it. The O-ring must be lubricated with a thin layer of silicone lubricant.
• Do not dismantle or repair this unit yourself.
• Follow the instructions for correct maintenance of the microphone
and battery housing, given in previous chapters.
• If the battery compartment should be flooded, remove the battery,
rinse the compartment with fresh water and leave to dry. Remove any
debris, and clean the gold plated contacts, then install a new battery.
If the unit does not function, check the state of the microphone.
• Routinely clean the microphone contacts and check the integrity
of the hydrophobic membrane and the casing. If the microphone
is flooded, it CANNOT BE recovered and must be replaced.
• Do not touch the hydrophobic membrane with any
sharp objects that may damage it.
