•

If a diver had less than 2 hours total accumulated dive time in the last 48

hours, then a 12 hour surface interval before flying is recommended.

•

Following any dive that required a decompression stop, flying should be

delayed for at least 24 hours, and if possible, for 48 hours.

•

Suunto recommends that flying is avoided until all the DAN and UHMS

guidelines and the dive computer wait to fly conditions are satisfied.

3.2.4. HIGH ALTITUDE DIVES AND PERSONAL

ADJUSTMENT

The dive computer can be adjusted both for diving at altitude and also to increase

the conservatism of the mathematical nitrogen model.

3.2.4.1. ALTITUDE ADJUSTMENT

When programming the instrument for the correct altitude, you need to select the

correct Altitude Mode according to Table 3.3. The dive computer will adjust its

mathematical model according to the entered altitude mode, giving shorter no-

decompression times at higher altitudes (see chapter 7.1., Table 7.1. and 7.2.).
