label NITROX, is shown after activation. In Dive Planning mode the Nitrox display shows (Fig. 3.21.):

the oxygen percentage, labeled with

O2%, is shown in the left side of the center window

the set oxygen partial pressure limit,

labeled with PO2, is shown in the upper right display

the maximum allowed depth based on the set oxygen percentage and partial pressure limit

the current oxygen toxicity exposure shown with an Oxygen Limit Fraction (OLF) bar graph along the left side of the display (instead of the CBT).

In the Dive modes, the oxygen percentage la- beled with O2% and the current oxygen toxicity exposure shown with an Oxygen Limit Frac- tion (OLF) bar graph are shown (Fig. 3.22. and Fig. 3.23.). If the wireless transmission is enabled the O2% is shown until the remain- ing air time is less than 30 minutes. After this, the remaining air time is displayed in its place. During a dive, the oxygen partial pressure, la- beled with PO2, is also shown instead of the maximum depth in the upper right display, if the partial pressure is greater than 1.4 bar or the set value (Fig. 3.24.).

By pressing the TIME button during a nitrox dive, the alternative display appears, which includes (Fig. 3.25.):
