Safety precautions
WARNING: ONLY TRAINED DIVERS SHOULD USE A DIVE COMPUTER! Insucient
training for any kind of diving, including freediving, may cause a diver to commit errors, such
as incorrect use of gas mixtures or improper decompression, that may lead to serious injury
or death.
WARNING: You must read the printed quick guide and online user guide for your dive
computer. Failure to do so may lead to improper use, serious injury or death.
WARNING: THERE IS ALWAYS A RISK OF DECOMPRESSION SICKNESS (DCS) FOR ANY
DIVE PROFILE EVEN IF YOU FOLLOW THE DIVE PLAN PRESCRIBED BY DIVE TABLES OR A
DIVE COMPUTER. NO PROCEDURE, DIVE COMPUTER OR DIVE TABLE WILL PREVENT THE
POSSIBILITY OF DCS OR OXYGEN TOXICITY! An individual’s physiological makeup can vary
from day to day. The dive computer cannot account for these variations. You are strongly
advised to remain well within the exposure limits provided by the instrument to minimize the
risk of DCS. As an added measure of safety, you should consult a physician regarding your
fitness before diving.
WARNING: If you have a pacemaker, we recommend you do not scuba dive. Scuba
diving creates physical stresses on the body which may not be suitable for pacemakers.
WARNING: If you have a pacemaker, consult a doctor before using this device. The
inductive frequency used by the device may interfere with pacemakers.
WARNING: Allergic reactions or skin irritations may occur when product is in contact with
skin, even though our products comply with industry standards. In such event, stop use
immediately and consult a doctor.
WARNING: Not for professional use! Suunto dive computers are intended for recreational
use only. The demands of commercial or professional diving may expose the diver to depths
and conditions that tend to increase the risk of decompression sickness (DCS). Therefore,
Suunto strongly recommends that the device not be used for any commercial or professional
diving activities.
WARNING: USE BACKUP INSTRUMENTS! Ensure that you use backup instrumentation,
including a depth gauge, submersible pressure gauge, timer or watch, and have access to
decompression tables whenever diving with a dive computer.
WARNING: For safety reasons, you should never dive alone. Dive with a designated
buddy. You should also stay with others for an extended time after a dive as the onset of
possible DCS may be delayed or triggered by surface activities.
