Stop time appear in the display. You should wait until the Mandatory Safety Stop
warning disappears (Fig. 3.13.).
The Mandatory Safety Stop time always includes the three minute Recommended
Safety Stop time. The total length of the Mandatory Safety Stop time depends on the
seriousness of the ascent rate violation.
You must not ascend shallower than 3 m [10 ft] with the Mandatory Safety Stop warn-
ing on. If you ascend above the Mandatory Safety Stop ceiling, a downward pointing
arrow will appear and a continuous beeping starts (Fig. 3.14.). You should immedi-
ately descend to, or below, the Mandatory Safety Stop ceiling depth. If you correct
this situation at any time during that dive, there are no affects on the decompression
calculations for future dives.
If you continue to violate the Mandatory Safety Stop, the tissue calculation model is
affected and the dive computer shortens the available no-decompression time for your
next dive. In this situation, it is recommended to prolong your surface interval time
before your next dive.
3.3. DIVING WITH THE ZOOP
The ZOOP has two operating modes: Air mode for diving with standard air only and
Nitrox mode for diving with oxygen enriched (EANx) mixtures. The Nitrox mode is
enabled in the MODE-SET-MODEL.
