7.2.2. FREE Dive
Dive series is only for one day. The day's dive numbering and latest dive information
resets to 0 at midnight, and each day there is a new series of dives that is recorded
in the log book.
The dive is completed once you ascend beyond 0.5 m. A new dive will be registered
in the log book immediately you descend once again.

7.3. Repetitive dive planning
The Suunto D4 includes a dive planner that allows you to review the no-decompression
limits on a subsequent dive, taking the residual nitrogen loading of previous dives into
consideration. The Dive Planning mode is explained in Section 7.5.1. Dive Planning
mode (MEMPlan)
.

7.4. Flying after diving
In DIVE mode, the no-fly time is shown in the center window next to the airplane image.
In TIME mode, the airplane image is shown in the top left corner and the no-fly time
on the bottom row. Flying or traveling to a higher altitude should be avoided at any
time when the computer is counting down the no-fly time.
The no-fly time is always at least 12 hours, or equivalent to the so-called desaturation
time (if longer than 12 hours). For desaturation times lower than 70 minutes, no no-
fly time is given.
In the Permanent Error mode and FREE mode (if the dive has exceeded 10 minutes)
the no-fly time is 48 hours.
The Divers Alert Network (DAN) recommends the following on no-fly times:
