The Planning mode accounts for the following information
from previous dives:

any calculated residual nitrogen

all dive history for the past four days

The no-decompression times given for different depths will
therefore be shorter than before your fi rst “fresh” dive.

You can exit the planning mode by pressing the MODE but-
ton.

NOTE! The Planning mode is disabled in Gauge mode and in
Error mode (see section 6.7. ”Error Conditions”). The planning
mode calculates no dec times for MIX1 only. If additional mi-
xes are enabled in the Nitrox mode they do not affect the cal-
culations in PLAN mode.

Higher Altitude and conservative Personal Adjustment Modes
will shorten the no-decompression time limits. These limits at
different Altitude and Personal Adjustment Mode selections
are shown in Table 10.1 and 10.2 in section 10.2. ”Suunto
Reduced Gradient Bubble Model”.

DIVE NUMBERING SHOWN DURING DIVE PLANNING

Dives belong to the same repetitive dive series if the instru-
ment was still counting down the no-fl y time at the beginning
of the dive.
