Depressing and holding the M button for 2 seconds while the

Local Default Watch TIME screen is displayed (Main Time or

Alternate Time, whichever was selected as the Default) ac-

cesses the previously selected Dive Mode SURFACE screen

(NORM, GAUG, or FREE).

If no dive has been taken within the past 24 hours, the NORM

SURF MAIN screen will appear as the default display indicated

by the graphic NORM (solid) (Fig. 31).

 The GAUG or FREE SURF MAIN screens can be accessed

by subsequent 2 second presses of the M button. Their

graphics will flash indicating that they can be 'selected' as

the Operating Dive Mode.

 To select a Mode for diving, press/release the M button

while that graphic is flashing. When the graphic becomes

solid, that Mode is then selected for the type of dives to be
