Fig. 3.5. Low Battery Warning.
Battery symbol indicates that
the battery is low and battery
replacement is recommended.
Temperature or an internal oxidation of the battery
affects the battery voltage. If the instrument is stored
for a long period, the low battery warning may be
displayed even though the battery has enough capacity.
The low battery warning may also be displayed at low
temperatures, even though the battery has enough
capacity in warmer conditions. In these cases repeat the
battery check procedure.
After battery check the Low Battery Warning is indicated
by the battery symbol (Fig. 3.5.).
If the battery symbol is displayed in the Surface mode
or if the display is faded or weak, the battery may be too
low to operate the dive computer and battery replacement
is recommended.
NOTE! For safety reasons the backlight cannot be
activated when the low battery warning is indicated
by the battery symbol.
3.1.3. DIVE PLANNING [PLAN]
To enter Planning Mode, press the PLAN button at
any time during Surface Mode. After showing the
text “PLAN” (Fig. 3.6.), the display will show the no-
decompression limit for the depth of 9 m [30 ft]. By
pressing the down arrow (t) TIME button, the dive
computer will calculate and show the next deeper no-
decompression limits in 3 m [10 ft] increments ending
at 45 m [150 ft]. By pressing the up arrow (s) PLAN
button, the next shallower depth will be shown again.
The Planning Mode is cancelled by pressing the SMART
(QUIT) button.
NOTE! The Planning mode is disabled in Gauge
mode and in Error mode (see section 3.9. “Error
Conditions”).
