When the time left decreases to 2 (two) hours a 'Recharge needed' red pop-up notification
appears. The red pop-up will stay on the screen on top of everything else and you cannot
make it disappear until the device is charged or you change to time view. In case of scuba
diving, when the charge level drops below 2 (two) hours, you cannot start a dive with Suunto
D5. For freediving the limit is 30 minutes.
During a dive the red battery icon (see above) is displayed. The notification pop-up comes
only on the surface so it will not cover information on the display during a dive.
When the battery runs empty, a charging symbol on a blank screen notifies you to recharge
your Suunto D5.
