955 Solar Shuts Down Unexpectedly

Anyone else’s 955 Solar shutting down unexpectedly? Has happened to me 3-4 times over the last few weeks. A couple times I was in the sauna and apparently I’m supposed to take it off while in the sauna now according to Garmin help. Suggestions?

Probably not a lot to do. You could try the full reset to factory defaults, though if there is a hardware problem, it is unlikely to help. If under warranty, get a replacement, if not, buy a new watch, and do not take it to sauna.

Yes.
I know you won't like it, but:

Only use the watch within the specified operating conditions.

Which means: Don't wear it in the Sauna.

Operating temperature range	From -20º to 60ºC (from -4º to 140ºF)

I mean: C'mon, it's an electronic device. Do you take your tablet, smartphone or laptop to the sauna and expect them to work flawlessly?
