Altitude and Personal Adjustments

WARNING!

SET THE CORRECT ALTITUDE AND PERSONAL ADJUSTMENT MODES!

Failure to properly select the Altitude and Personal Adjustment Modes correctly

will result in erroneous data and can greatly increase the risk of decompression

sickness. More information about this is given in Section 4.5, “High Altitude

Dives and Personal Adjustment“.

WARNING!

SET THE CORRECT ALTITUDE ADJUSTMENT MODE WHEN DIVING AT

ALTITUDES GREATER THAN 700 M [2300 FT]! When diving at altitudes

greater than 700 m [2300 ft] the altitude adjustment feature must be correctly

selected in order for the computer to calculate no-decompression status. Failure

to select the Altitude Adjustment Mode correctly will result in erroneous data

and can greatly increase the risk of decompression sickness.
