WARNING!

YOU SHOULD ASCEND AND BEGIN DECOMPRESSION IMMEDIATELY WHEN THE DIVE COMPUTER

SHOWS YOU THAT DECOMPRESSION IS REQUIRED! Note the upward pointing arrow.

The ascent time (ASC TIME) is the minimum amount of minutes needed to reach the surface in a decompression dive. It

includes: The time needed to ascend to the ceiling at an ascent rate of 10 m/min [33 ft/min]
plus
The time needed at the ceiling. The ceiling is the shallowest depth to which you should ascend plus
The time needed to reach the surface after the ceiling has been removed.

WARNING!

YOUR ACTUAL ASCENT TIME MAY BE LONGER THAN DISPLAYED ON THE DIVE COMPUTER.

The ascent time will increase if you:

• remain at depth
• ascend slower than 10 m/min [33 ft/min] or
• make your decompression stop deeper than at the ceiling.

These factors will also increase the amount of air required to reach the surface.
