Dive Warnings

• The diving features of this device are for use by certified divers only. This device should not be used as a sole
dive computer. Failure to input the appropriate dive-related information into the device can lead to serious
personal injury or death.
• Make sure that you fully understand the use, displays, and limitations of your device. If you have questions
about this manual or the device, always resolve any discrepancies or confusion before diving with the device.
Always remember that you are responsible for your own safety.
• There is always a risk of decompression sickness (DCS) for any dive profile even if you follow the dive plan
provided by the dive tables or a diving device. No procedure, diving device, or dive table will eliminate the
possibility of DCS or oxygen toxicity. An individual's physiological make up can vary from day to day. This
device cannot account for these variations. You are strongly advised to remain well within the limits provided
by this device to minimize the risk of DCS. You should consult a physician regarding your fitness before

diving.

• Always use backup instruments, including a depth gauge, submersible pressure gauge, and timer or watch.
You should have access to decompression tables when diving with this device.
• Perform pre-dive safety checks, such as checking proper device function and settings, display function,
battery level, tank pressure, and bubble checks to check hoses for leaks.
• This device should not be shared between multiple users for diving purposes. Diver profiles are user specific,
and using another diver's profile can result in misleading information that could lead to injury or death.
• For safety reasons, you should never dive alone. Dive with a designated buddy. You should also stay with
others for an extended time after a dive, because the potential onset of decompression sickness (DCS) may
be delayed or triggered by surface activities.
• This device is not intended for commercial or professional dive activities. It is for recreational purposes only.
Commercial or professional dive activities can expose the user to extreme depths or conditions that increase
the risk of DCS.
