WARNING!
USE BACK-UP INSTRUMENTS! Make sure that you use back-up instru-
mentation including a depth gauge, submersible pressure gauge, timer or
watch, and have access to decompression tables whenever diving with the
Spyder.
WARNING!
NO DIVE COMPUTER WILL PREVENT THE POSSIBILITY OF DE-
COMPRESSION SICKNESS (DCS)! All divers must understand and accept
that there is no procedure or dive computer that will totally prevent the
possibility of a decompression accident. For example, the individual physi-
ological make up can vary within an individual from day to day. The dive
computer cannot account for these variations. As an added measure of
safety, you should consult a physician regarding your fitness before diving
with the Spyder. Decompression sickness can cause serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
ENSURE THE WATER RESISTANCE OF THE DEVICE! Ensure the wa-
ter resistance of the device by servicing the push buttons and protective
seals every two years. Avoid operating the push buttons unnecessarily un-
derwater. Always check the water resistance of the device when replacing
the battery. Moisture inside the device will seriously damage the unit. Bat-
tery replacement and other service activities should be done only by an
authorized SUUNTO dealer or distributor.
