6.2. Diving in NITROX mode (DIVEnitrox)

NITROX mode (DIVEnitrox) is the second dive mode available in Suunto D4 and is

6.2.1. Before diving in NITROX mode

If set to the NITROX mode, the correct oxygen percentage of the gas in your cylinder
must always be entered into the computer to ensure correct nitrogen and oxygen

lation models accordingly. The dive computer will not accept fractional percentage
values of oxygen concentration. Do not round up fractional percentages. For example,
31.8% oxygen should be entered as 31%. Rounding up will cause nitrogen percentages
