you follow the dive plan prescribed by dive tables or a dive computer. no

procedure, dive computer or dive table will prevent the possibility of dci or oxygen

toxicity. An individual's physiological make up can vary from day to day. The

dive computer cannot account for these variations. You are strongly advised

to remain well within the exposure limits provided by the instrument to minimize

the risk of DCI. As an added measure of safety, you should consult a physician

regarding your fitness before diving.

Suunto strongly recommends that sport divers limit their maximum depth to 40

m [130 ft] or to the depth calculated by the computer based on the selected O

WARNING

Dives with required decompression stops are not recommended. you should

ascend and begin decompression immediately when the dive computer shows

you that a decompression stop is required. Note the blinking ASC TIME symbol

WARNING

Use back-up instruments. Make sure that you use back-up instrumentation

including a depth gauge, submersible pressure gauge, timer or watch, and have

access to decompression tables whenever diving with a dive computer.
