DECOMPRESSION DIVES

WARNING!

DO NOT USE THIS INSTRUMENT TO CONDUCT DECOMPRESSION DIVES! Suunto does not recommend this instru-
ment to be used to conduct decompression dives. However, if through carelessness or emergency a diver is forced to exceed
the no-decompression limits on a dive, the instrument will provide decompression information required for ascent. After this
the dive computer will continue to provide subsequent interval and repetitive dive infor mation.

EMERGENCY ASCENTS

In the unlikely event that the instrument malfunctions during a dive, follow the emergency procedures provided by your
certified dive training agency or, alternatively, immediately ascend at a rate slower than 10 m/min [33 ft/min] to a depth between
3 and 6 meters [10 to 20 ft] and stay there as long as your air supply will safely allow.
