Suunto EON Steel Black
When the diver ascends above the deepstop window ceiling - in this case above 14.2 m
(46.6 ft) - a downward pointing yellow arrow signals that the depth is not optimal, it is
recommended to descend. The deepstop target depth number also turns yellow.
If the diver keeps ascending, after 0.5 m (1.6 ft), a downward pointing red arrow and an alarm
notify the diver to descend immediately. The deepstop calculation keeps running for another
1.5 m (4.9 ft) up but stops after that. In the above example it stops at 12.2 m (40.0 ft).
NOTE: For safety reasons, you cannot switch off deepstops if helium (trimix gas
mixtures) is enabled for the dive mode in use. When helium is not in use, deepstops can be
turned on and off. However, it is recommended that you turn deepstops on for all dives. If
deepstops are turned on but omitted during a dive, it will affect your next dive which will be
more conservative.
