WARNING!
THE DIVE COMPUTER SHOULD NEVER BE TRADED OR SHARED
BETWEEN USERS WHILE IT IS IN OPERATION! Its information will not
apply to someone who has not been wearing it throughout a dive or sequence of
repetitive dives. Its dive profi les must match that of the user. If it is left on the
surface during any dive, it will give inaccurate information for subsequent dives.
No dive computer can take into account dives made without the computer. Thus
any diving activity up to four days prior to initial use of the computer may cause
misleading information and must be avoided.
WARNING!
DO NOT EXPOSE THE COBRA DIVE COMPUTER WITH IT´S STANDARD
HOSE TO ANY GAS MIX CONTAINING MORE THAN 40% OXYGEN!
Enriched air with greater oxygen content presents a risk of fi re or explosion and
serious injury or death.
WARNING!
DO NOT DIVE WITH A CYLINDER OF ENRICHED AIR IF YOU HAVE NOT
PERSONALLY VERIFIED ITS CONTENTS AND ENTERED THE ANALYZED
VALUE INTO YOUR DIVE COMPUTER! Failure to verify cylinder contents and
enter the appropriate O
2
% into your dive computer will result in incorrect dive
planning information.
WARNING!
THE DIVE COMPUTER WILL NOT ACCEPT FRACTIONAL PERCENTAGE
VALUES OF OXYGEN CONCENTRATION. DO NOT ROUND UP
FRACTIONAL PERCENTAGES! For example, 31.8% oxygen should be entered
as 31%. Rounding up will cause nitrogen percentages to be understated and will
affect decompression calculations. If there is a desire to adjust the computer to
provide more conservative calculations, use the personal adjustment feature to affect
decompression calculations or reduce the PO
2
setting to affect oxygen exposure.
WARNING!
SET THE CORRECT ALTITUDE ADJUSTMENT MODE! WHEN DIVING at
altitudes greater than 300 m [1000 ft] the Altitude Adjustment feature must be
correctly selected in order for the computer to calculate the decompression status.
THE DIVE COMPUTER is not intended for use at altitudes greater than 3000
m [10000 ft]. FAILURE TO SELECT the correct Altitude Adjustment setting or
diving above the maximum altitude limit will result in erroneous dive and planning
data.
