Cressi CARTESIO GOA - FREE DIVE SURFACE INTERVAL & GAGE MODE; FREE DIVE SURFACE DATA; GAGE MODE OPERATION

English
GAGE MODE: depth gauge and timer.
Besides the AIR, NITROX and FREE modes, the computer has a fourth mode
called GAGE (depth gauge and timer) that may be used both in free diving and
when using the instruments in the so-called technical dives. In the latter case, the
instrument will only supply the basic parameters of the dive, i.e., depth, dive time,
average depth, and temperature and it will make no tissue saturation and de-
saturation computations, which must be programmed and determined by means
tailor-made software and/or tables. In this connection, Cressi underscores that
sport dives must be conducted within the safety curve at a maximum depth of
40 m (sport dive limit): overstepping such limits entails an appreciable increase
in DCS risks!
When the computer is set to GAGE mode, during a dive within the safety curve,
the display shows the following information:
• Max depth reached.
• Dive time (in minutes).
• Current depth.
• Dive time (seconds).
• Average depth (A.).
• Temperature.

During the surface interval between two dips, the display shows the following data:
• Max depth of last dip.
• Last dip underwater time.
• Surface time in minutes and seconds.
• Number of dips made.
• Temperature.
To exit the apnea session:
Press

Then press UP /DOWN until you see YES, and conrm by pressing

NOTE: After 30 minutes at surface level, the session ends automatically.
NOTE: To prevent the risk for DCS after a FREE dive, no AIR or EAN dive is
permitted for 24 hours.
