Mares Nemo - Safety Stop

34
EN
At the same time as the audible alarm is triggered, the computer begins monitoring an
"Uncontrolled Ascent". An ascent is considered "uncontrolled" when the diver exceeds the
maximum rate for a stretch equal to at least two thirds of the depth at which the audible
alarm was triggered.
This criterion only applies to alarms triggered below a depth of 12 m (39 ft). In case of an
uncontrolled ascent, on surfacing Nemo disables the Air and Nitrox functions of Dive
Mode, and will only function as a timer and depth gauge (BT). The other operating modes
remain active.
The "Stop" on uncontrolled ascent function can be disabled in Set Dive mode.
Safety Stop
If the maximum depth of a dive exceeds 10 meters, a
"Safety Stop" is activated for the ascent. In this case
Nemo prompts for a 3 minute safety stop, at a depth
between 2.5 and 6 m (8 - 19 ft), displaying the
"SAFESTOP" message until the stop has been completed.
If the diver moves outside the above mentioned depth
range, the safety stop timer is halted. When the diver
re-enters the correct depth range, the safety stop timer
resumes from where it left off. If the diver returns to a
depth below 10 m (32 ft), the safety stop timer will
ignore the previously aborted stop and subsequently
start counting down from 3 minutes again.
n the case of a decompression-stop dive, the safety stop
extends the duration of the decompression stop at 3 m
(10 ft) by an additional 3 minutes, displaying the safety
stop information as described previously.
WARNING
Disabling the "Stop" on uncontrolled
ascent should only be done by highly
experienced divers, who take full
responsibility for the consequences of
this action.
