1.1XP EINS USER’S MANUAL
Congratulations and thank you for purchasing a SEEMANN XP EINS dive computer. As of today you will be accompanied by the latest
generation dive computer using the most sophisticated technology. It is specifically designed to guarantee maximum safety for your
dives.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Just like all dive computers, the XP EINS gives the diver important data. But it does not offer the context the diver must be fully aware of
and furthermore understand to interpret that data in practice. A dive computer is never a substitute for common sense, proper training
and diving certification.
Do not attempt to use your XP EINS without reading this instruction manual completely, including all warnings, and make sure you fully
understand the use, displays and limitations of your XP EINS.
Always remember that you are responsible for your own safety.
WARNING!
Recreational diving is a sport that involves certain risks. There is always a risk of decompression illness (DCI), oxygen toxicity and other
risks related to diving with NITROX or compressed air even if following the instructions given in this user’s manual carefully. If you are
not fully aware of all risks, and if you do not wish to take the sole responsibility, do not use the XP EINS. Risks are not always obvious
and require training to understand and avoid. Risks can include injury or death.
The XP EINS was programmed exclusively for diving with NITROX (max. 99% O2)
and compressed air (21% O2). Do not attempt to
dive with any gas mix other than compressed air or NITROX.
Before the dive, make sure you have correctly set all the NITROX dive parameters: percentage of oxygen in the mix and limit for the
partial pressure of oxygen, which together determine the maximum depth of the dive. Always be aware that if an incorrect gas mixture is
entered, the decompression time calculation may be incorrect, as may be the calculation of the percentage of oxygen (PPO2) in the mix.
The maximum discrepancy between the entered PPO2 and the measured PPO2 of the mixture shall not exceed 1%. Incorrect data
entry can cause serious injury or death!
• Always pay attention to the visual and acoustic signals of the XP EINS;
Never exceed the maximum permitted depth according to the gas mixture in use during NITROX dives.
• Always check the limits for the dive you are preparing for.
In doing so, pay attention to the PPO2 of the gas mixture and the standard safety precautions for recreational diving
(decompression illness, oxygen toxicity)
• As taught in all diving courses, never exceed a depth of 40 meters (130 ft.). The risk of oxygen toxicity must be considered at
all times, and the XP EINS does not warn you of that risk.
• Make a safety stop of a minimum of three minutes at 5 meters (16ft.) in all your dives with the XP EINS. The XP EINS offers a
safety stop timer that simplifies this factor, if used correctly.
• Any diver using a dive computer for monitoring his/her decompression status must use an individual computer. This individual
computer must be used for all dives carried out within a short period.
• Should the XP EINS malfunction at any time during a dive, abort the dive, ascending slowly. You will still have to make your
safety stop at 5 meters (16 ft.) for three to five minutes.
