WATER:
Is set to what type of water you are about to dive in
(SALT= Sea water, FRESH= lake water)
ATTENTION:
The dive computers measure the pressure and convert it depth using the water density as constant.
Without the SALT/FRESH setting the depth reading might be altered (If you dive in fresh water with
WATER=SALT setting the depth detected by the iDive will be lower than the real one, vice versa if you dive in salt
water with WATER=FRESH setting the depth detected will be higher than the real one.)
DIVE MODE:
In case you enter water with the device switched off or in the main screen:
