IMPORTANT WARNINGS
Important:
Any critical information or warnings that might
affect the performance or result in the injury
of the technician, PUCK Computer owner, or
other persons are highlighted with the following
symbols:
CAUTION
Indicates a potentially hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, may result
in minor or moderate injury. It may also
be used to alert against unsafe practices.
WARNING
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, could result in death
or serious injury.
!
DANGER
Indicates an imminently hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, will result
in death or serious injury.
Before diving, make sure you have read and
understood all parts of this manual.
WARNING
The PUCK computer is designed exclusively
for recreational use and is not intended for
professional applications.
WARNING
In addition to the dive computer, also use
a depth gauge, a submersible pressure
gauge, a timer or watch, and dive tables.
WARNING
Never dive alone; PUCK is no substitute for
a diving buddy.
WARNING
Do not dive if the readings on the
instrument appear irregular or unclear.
WARNING
The dive computer cannot ensure against
possible decompression sickness. The dive
computer cannot take into account the
physical conditions of the individual diver,
which may vary from one day to the next.
For your safety, have a general medical
check-up before undertaking a dive.
WARNING
Always check the battery power level
before starting the dive. Do not dive if
the icon indicates that the battery is low.
Replace the battery.
WARNING
Do not fly within 24 hours of your last
dive, and in any case wait until the PUCK
(“no fly”) indication disappears.
WARNING
Recreational divers should not dive
deeper than 40 m (130 feet). Although
this computer will continue to provide
information for compressed-air dives
deeper than 40m (130 ft.), the risk of
nitrogen narcosis and decompression
sickness (DCS) is greatly increased;
therefore this information should be
treated as only approximate.
