Safety Considerations
You must carefully read this entire manual before using your Monitor 3 Air.
WARNING: Diving has many inherent risks. Decom- pression sickness is among the most serious of those risks. Even if you follow the instructions in this manual carefully, it is possible that you may be seriously injured or die from decompression sickness, or some other inherent risk of SCUBA diving. Unless you are fully aware of these risks and are willing to personally accept and assume responsibility for those risks, do not use the Monitor 3 Air!
The Monitor 3 Air is a sophisticated decompression tool to assist a trained and certified SCUBA diver in making decisions concerning dive planning and execution. As with any tool, the Monitor 3 Air may be misused if the following safety and operational precautions are not strictly followed. If they are followed, careful use of the Monitor 3 Air can increase your diving enjoyment and reduce the risk of decompression sickness (DCS); if they are not followed, you will be placing yourself at serious risk for DCS.
