After activation, all display elements turn on showing mostly figure 8s and graphical
elements, and the backlight and the beep are activated. After this, the selected altitude
and personal settings are displayed, as well as the RGBM and Deep Stop status. A
few seconds later the battery power indicator is shown.

At this time, perform your pre-checks, making sure that:

the instrument operates in the correct mode and provides a complete display
(AIR/NITROX/GAUGE mode)

the battery level is ok

the altitude, personal adjustment, Safety/Deep stops, and RGBM settings are
correct

the instrument displays correct units of measurement (Metric/Imperial)

the instrument displays the correct temperature and depth (0.0 m/0 ft)

the alarm beeps

And, if set to NITROX mode, make sure that:

the correct number of mixes is set and that the oxygen percentages are adjusted
according to the measured nitrox blends in your cylinders

the oxygen partial pressure limits are set correctly
