6.1.5. Safety Stops

A three (3) minute Recommended Safety Stop is prompted after every dive to over 10 m.

6.1.6. Stopwatch (Timer)

You can also use a stopwatch during diving for various timing purposes. To activate the stopwatch in the DIVE mode, long-press the MODE button, then start and stop it by short-pressing the SELECT button.

6.1.7. Decompression dives

When your NO DEC TIME becomes zero, your dive changes into a decompression dive. Therefore, you must perform one or more decompression stops on your way to the surface. The NO DEC TIME on your display will be replaced by an ASC TIME, and a CEILING notation will appear. An upward pointing arrow will also prompt you to start your ascent.

If you exceed the no-decompression limits on a dive, the dive computer will provide the decompression information required for ascent. After this, the instrument will continue to provide subsequent interval and repetitive dive information.
