6. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
6.1 OPERATING PRINCIPLES
The Suunto dive computer is a multi-functional sport diving instrument, which provides information on depths, times and
decompression requirements. Its electronic microprocessor mathematically models the absorption and release of nitrogen
during all phases of diving, including ascents, surface intervals and repetitive dives.
WARNING!
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO USE THE INSTRUMENT WITHOUT FIRST READING THE ENTIRE OWNERS
MANUAL! The dive computer must be activated before diving and operated correctly to provide accurate and correct
information.
NO-DECOMPRESSION LIMITS
The no-decompression limits displayed by the dive computer upon activation are for most dives to a single depth slightly
more conservative than those permitted by the U.S. Navy tables, Tables 6.1-6.2.
