SURFACE INTERVALS

The dive computer requires a minimum surface interval of 10 minutes between dives. If a surface interval is shorter than 10

minutes, the instrument dive counter and dive timer treat the next dive as a continuation of the previous dive. It adds the dive

times, and calculates no-decompression limits or decompression stops based on excess nitrogen absorbed on both dives. In

this regard, it is similar to the U.S. Navy tables.

DEPTH LIMITS

WARNING!

SUUNTO STRONGLY RECOMMENDS THAT SPORT DIVERS LIMIT THEIR MAXIMUM DEPTH TO 40 m

[130 ft]!

However, the dive computer will calculate below that depth to provide a wide margin of flexibility if, through carelessness

or emergency, you are forced to exceed this recommended depth limit for a dive.
