. WARNING!
NEVER ASCEND ABOVE THE CEILING! You must not ascend above the ceil-
ing. In order to avoid doing so by accident, you should stay slightly below the
ceiling. The ceiling zone is the shallowest depth range to which you should as-
cend when in decompression.
DISPLAY BELOW CEILING ZONE
The CEILING/ASC TIME symbol and upwards pointing arrow indicate that you are
below the ceiling zone (Fig. 3.13). You should start your ascent immediately.
DISPLAY AT CEILING ZONE
When you reach the ceiling zone, the display will show you two arrows pointing
toward each other (the “hour glass” icon, Fig. 3.14). The two arrows pointing toward
each other will be shown between the minimum ceiling and 1.8 m [6 ft] below the
minimum ceiling. All decompression stops must be performed at or below the ceiling
depth range.
The depth of the ceiling will depend on your dive profile. It will be fairly shallow
when you enter the decompression mode, but if you remain at depth, it will move
downward and the ascent time will increase.
The ceiling depth will be shown on the left side of the center window.

ABOVE CEILING
Note the downward pointing arrow and
the blinking Er warning. You should
immediately (within 3 minutes) descend
to or below the ceiling.
Fig. 3.14 DECOMPRESSION DIVE,
AT THE CEILING ZONE
The two arrows (a) point at each other
(“hour glass”). You are at the ceiling
zone at 3.5 m [11 ft] (c) and your
minimum ascent time is 3 minutes (d).
The ceiling is at 3 m [10 ft] (b).
