WARNING

DO NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM ASCENT RATE! Rapid as-
cents increase the risk of injury. You should always make the
Mandatory and Recommended Safety Stops after you have ex-
ceeded the maximum recommended ascent rate. If this Mandatory
Safety Stop is not completed, the decompression model will
penalize your next dive(s).

6.1.6. Decompression dives
When your NO DEC TIME becomes zero, your dive changes into a decompression
dive. Therefore, you must perform one or more decompression stops on your way to
the surface. The NO DEC TIME on your display will be replaced by an ASC TIME,
and a CEILING notation will appear. An upward pointing arrow will also prompt you
to start your ascent.
