3. DIVING WITH THE ZOOP

This section contains instructions on how to operate the dive computer and interpret

its displays. You will find that this dive computer is easy to use and read. Each display

shows only the data relevant to that specific diving situation.

3.1. BEFORE DIVING

3.1.1. Activation and Prechecks

The dive computer will activate if submerged deeper than 0.5 m (1.5 ft). However, it is

necessary to turn on the Dive Mode before diving to check the altitude and personal

adjustment settings, battery condition, oxygen settings etc. Press the SMART (Mode)

button to activate the instrument.

After activation all display elements will turn on showing mostly figure 8’s and graphical

elements (Fig. 3.1.). A few seconds later the battery power indicator is shown and the

buzzer is activated (Fig. 3.2. display a, b, c or d depending on the battery voltage). If

set to Air mode the screen will enter the Surface mode (Fig. 3.3.) and if set to Nitrox

mode the essential oxygen parameters are shown with the text NITROX (Fig. 3.20.)

before the Surface mode.
