To reduce the risk of developing decompression sickness after a single no decompression dive, current guide-
lines suggest waiting 12 hours prior to exposure to atmospheric pressures equivalent to 1,000 feet (330 me-
ters) above sea level, or greater. When repetitive dives are conducted during the same day, or period of days,
it is suggested that the interval be increased to a minimum of 24 hours. Note that land travel to higher eleva-
tions after diving must also be considered as an exposure to altitude.
CLEAR (RESET)
The Wisdom 3 computer is configured with a feature that allows calculations pertaining to a dive series in
progress to be interrupted. Activation of this feature will delete all data accumulated during the dive series
necessary for planning a next dive and should only be performed if the user plans to suspend diving for at
least 24 hours.
This feature is present to provide institutional users of the computer a means to provide a "clean" computer to
subsequent users without having to wait for the computer to complete all calculations in real time. This prac-
tice requires strict control to ensure that the "clean" computer is not used by a diver that has been diving with-
in the preceding 24 hours. Failure to follow this practice could adversely affect the accuracy of subsequent
calculations by failing to account for previous exposure to elevated nitrogen and oxygen partial pressures.
WARNING: Do not attempt to activate the CLEAR (Reset) function on your computer.
Proper activation of this feature requires controlled procedures and is restricted to
authorized personnel.
WARNING: Improper activation of this feature could expose the user to elevated
risk of decompression sickness or oxygen toxicity. This is a serious risk and could
result in injury or death.
WARNING: If the CLEAR (Reset) screen appears (Fig. 90) on your computer, cease
all operation of the computer buttons and wait at least 24 hours before resuming
diving activity.

COMPASS REMOVAL/INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Tool required: standard flat blade screwdriver
To remove the Compass Module from the Wisdom Console:
• Carefully slide the blade of a small screwdriver under the bottom of the Module at the 12 o'clock posi-
tion (Fig. C1), carefully lifting the front of the Module upward (Fig. C2).
• Grasp the Module with your fingers and pull it out of the Boot.
To install the Compass Module into the Wisdom Boot:
• Orient the Boot so the Compass cavity faces up.
• Loosely position the Module directly on the Compass cavity of the Boot aligned with the thin red line
located at the 6 o'clock position of the wall (center of the viewing notch of the Compass cavity) of the
Boot (Fig. C3).
• First, press the Module down into the Boot at the 12 o'clock position.
• Then, with the palm of your hand, press directly down at the 6 o'clock position (Fig. C4) until the
Module snaps down into place in the Boot.
• Turn the Compass Bezel to ensure that it rotates properly in both directions.
