6. DIVING
This section contains instructions on how to operate the dive computer and interpret its
displays. You’ll find that this dive computer is easy to use and read. Each display shows
only the data relevant to that specific diving mode.
6.1. Diving-related information
In this section, we look at how to make the most of the dive computer when diving with
gas mixes. To activate MIXED GAS DIVE mode, please see Section 5.10.1. Accessing
DIVE mode.
DIVE HAS JUST BEGUN AND
AVAILABLE NO-DECOMPRESSION
TIME IS OVER 199 MINUTES SO NO
VALUE IS DISPLAYED.
NOTE The dive computer will remain in the Surface mode at depths less
than 1.2 m/4 ft. At depths greater than 1.2 m/4 ft the instrument will
go into the DIVE mode automatically. However, it is recommended
that you activate the Surface mode manually before entering the water
in order to perform the necessary dive pre-checks.
NOTE The default fields shown on your dive computer in diving mode are
the ones you select while in surface mode.
