SOURCE: Suunto Cobra Computer Console, battery replacement
Hey scuba2man, I have the same problem. Did you ever work out what was going on? My console didn't register any depth for first couple of dives (I had to turn it on every 5 mins to check air). Next couple of dives it told me I was between 98 and 103 metres deep (whatever that is in feet). I was at a maximum depth of 22m!!
I will let you know if I find solution. If not then I'll just get a new one!!!

Hello. remove the new batteries and clean the contacts with the eraser end of a common pencil. Then reinsert the batteries. IF it still doesn't work it could be that your new batteries are no good. Take them to any radio shack store and they will test them for u at no charge. J.

With steady use of the heart rate monitor or the backlight feature, the battery in the watch will likely last less than 1 year. It may be due for replacement as well, in addition to the one you replaced in the chest belt transmitter.
See page 6, paragraph 1.4 of the USER'S MANUAL for detailed instructions and normal maintenance schedule for replacing the battery in the watch body.
Also ensure that the chest belt is secure enough to provide good constant contact bewtween the transmitter's sensor electrodes and your bare skin. Also make sure to lightly wet the grooved electrode area on the back of the transmitter to ensure proper contact with skin.
See page 14, paragraph 2.4 of the User's Manual for additional details.

Dear William,
there must be a problem with energy (not enought) or too thin battery (did you exchange it latelly) - loosing contact when you schock the watch.
Let me know when you check this...

1)
Make sure the heart rate monitor is under your clothing, against your
skin, and as high under the pectoral muscles as is comfortable. Note:
If the heart rate monitor does not function when positioned as
described, try moving it slightly lower or higher on your chest.
2)
Make sure the logo on the sensor is facing forward and is right side
up.
3)
Use saline solution (saliva or contact lens solution) to wet the two
electrode areas on the sensor unit. If the heart rate readings do not
appear until you begin perspiring, re-wet the electrode areas.
4)
As you walk or run on the treadmill, position yourself near the
center of the walking belt. For the console to display heart rate
readings
5)
The heart rate monitor is designed to work with people who have
normal heart rhythms. Heart rate detection problems may be caused by
medical conditions such as premature ventricular contractions (pvcs),
tachycardia bursts, and arrhythmia.
6)
The operation of the heart rate monitor can be affected by magnetic
interference caused by high power lines or other sources. If you
suspect that magnetic interference may be causing a problem, try
relocating the treadmill.
7)
If the heart rate monitor still does not function properly, test it
by having another person try it.
