6.2.4. Gas change and multiple breathing gas mixes
The Suunto D9tx allows gas changes to enabled gas mixes during the dive. When the
maximum operating depth allows for a gas change, the dive computer prompts you
to change the gas. When PO

2

permits better decompression gas to be used, the dive

computer prompts it automatically if it is set as primary. Gas changes are made by
following the procedure below:

NOTE

Mix number, O

2

%, He% and PO

2

for the mixes are shown

when scrolling. If the set PO

2

limit is exceeded, it will be shown

with the PO

2

value blinking. The dive computer does not allow

you to change to a gas whose set PO

2

is exceeded. In such

a case, the mix is shown but cannot be selected. If the PO

2

is less than 0.18 bar, the dive computer gives an alarm.
