CARE AND CLEANING
The Insight is a sensitive electronic instrument. Although it has been built to endure the rigors of diving, it still must be
handled carefully to protect it from shock, excessive heat, chemical attack, and tampering. The housing is made of an impact
resistant resin that is shock resistant but susceptible to scratches and attack by strong chemicals.
CAUTION: Never spray aerosols of any kind on, or near, the Insight. The propellants may
chemically attack the plastic.
Be careful not to leave it in an unsupervised, unprotected location where it might be damaged. Many dive computers (and dive
trips) are ruined due to carelessly tossed weight belts or cylinders.
If the lens becomes scratched, Sherwood Scuba can replace it, although small scratches will naturally disappear underwater.
For even more convenience and additional protection against scratches, place a transparent Instrument Lens Protector on the
gauge face. This can be purchased from your Authorized Sherwood Scuba Dealer.
CLEANING
Soak and rinse the Insight in fresh water following each day of diving, preferably after each dive, and ensure that it is free of
any debris or obstructions that would block the sensors. If possible, use lukewarm water to dissolve any salt crystals. Salt de-
posits can also be dissolved using a 50% white vinegar/50% fresh water bath. Towel dry before storing, and transport your In-
sight cool, dry, and protected.
CAUTION: Never, under any circumstances, poke any object through any slots or holes on the rear
side of the Insight. Doing so may damage the Depth Sensor, possibly resulting in erroneous depth
and/or dive time remaining displays.
