IMPORTANT SAFETY ANDPRODUCT INFORMATION WARNINGFailure to heed the following warningscould result in an accident or medicalevent resulting in death or serious injury.Dive Warnings• The diving features of this device arefor use by certified divers only. Thisdevice should not be used as a soledive computer. Failure to input theappropriate dive-related informationinto the device can lead to seriouspersonal injury or death.•Make sure that you fully understandthe use, displays, and limitations ofyour device. If you have questionsabout this manual or the device,always resolve any discrepancies orconfusion before diving with thedevice. Always remember that you areresponsible for your own safety.• There is always a risk ofdecompression sickness (DCS) for anydive profile even if you follow the diveplan provided by the dive tables or adiving device. No procedure, divingdevice, or dive table will eliminate thepossibility of DCS or oxygen toxicity.An individual's physiological make upcan vary from day to day. This devicecannot account for these variations.You are strongly advised to remainwell within the limits provided by thisdevice to minimize the risk of DCS.You should consult a physicianregarding your fitness before diving.• This device can calculatedecompression stop requirements.These calculations are at best anestimate of the real physiologicaldecompression requirements. Divesrequiring staged decompression aresubstantially more risky than dives thatstay well within no-stop limits. Divingwith rebreathers, diving with mixedgases, performing stageddecompression dives, and diving inoverhead environments greatlyincreases the risk of scuba diving.•If you have a pacemaker or otherimplantable medical device, consult1
your physician before you dive. Scubadiving creates physical stresses on thebody, which may not be suitable forpacemakers and other implantablemedical devices.• Always use backup instruments,including a depth gauge, submersiblepressure gauge, and timer or watch.You should have access todecompression tables when diving withthis device.•Perform pre-dive safety checks, suchas checking proper device function andsettings, display function, battery level,and tank pressure.• Check your device regularly during adive. If there is any apparentmalfunction, terminate the diveimmediately and safely return to thesurface.• This device should not be sharedbetween multiple users for divingpurposes. Diver profiles are userspecific, and using another diver'sprofile can result in misleadinginformation that could lead to injury ordeath.• For safety reasons, you should neverdive alone. Dive with a designatedbuddy. You should also stay withothers for an extended time after adive, because the potential onset ofDCS may be delayed or triggered bysurface activities.• This device is not intended forcommercial or professional diveactivities. It is for recreational purposesonly. Commercial or professional diveactivities can expose the user toextreme depths or conditions thatincrease the risk of DCS.• Do not dive with a gas if you have notpersonally verified its contents andinput the analyzed value to the device.Failure to verify tank contents andinput the appropriate gas values to thedevice will result in incorrect diveplanning information and could resultin serious injury or death.• Diving with more than one gas mixturepresents a much greater risk thandiving with a single gas mixture.Mistakes related to the use of multiplegas mixtures may lead to serious injuryor death.2
• After analyzing your gas, always rounddown the result when inputting it to thedevice. For example, if the analyzedgas is 31.7% oxygen, input the gas as31%. This buffer will result in moreconservative and safer calculations.• Always ensure a safe ascent. A rapidascent increases the risk of DCS.•Disabling the deco lockout feature onthe device can result in an increasedrisk of DCS, which can result inpersonal injury or death. Disable thisfeature at your own risk.• Violating a required decompressionstop may result in serious injury ordeath. Never ascend above thedisplayed decompression stop depth.• Always perform a safety stop between3 and 5 meters for 3 minutes, even ifno decompression stop is required.• The maximum operating depth (MOD)should not be exceeded. Disregardingthe alarm may result in serious injuryor death.• Diving with a partial pressure ofoxygen (PO2) greater than 1.6, acentral nervous system (CNS) oxygentoxicity exposure of 80% or greater, ordaily oxygen tolerance units (OTU) of300 or greater can be hazardous, andcould result in serious injury or death.Terminate the dive if you reach oxygentoxicity levels.• Traveling to a higher elevation,including air travel, can temporarilycause a change in the equilibrium ofdissolved nitrogen in the body. Alwaysacclimatize to new altitudes before andafter diving, because failure to do somay result in personal injury or death.Battery WarningsA lithium-ion battery can be used in thisdevice.If these guidelines are not followed,batteries may experience a shortened lifespan or may present a risk of damage tothe device, fire, chemical burn, electrolyteleak, and/or injury.• Do not disassemble, modify,remanufacture, puncture or damagethe device or batteries.•Do not remove or attempt to removethe non-user-replaceable battery.• Do not expose the device or batteriesto fire, explosion, or other hazard.3
