DECOMPRESSION DIVE MODE
The XR1 is designed to help you by providing a representation of
how close you are to entering decompression. Decompression
Dive Mode activates when theoretical No Decompression time/
depth limits are exceeded.
Upon entering Decompression Mode, you should begin a safe con-
trolled Ascent to a Depth slightly deeper than, or equal to, the Re-
quired Ceiling Stop Depth indicated (Fig. 28a) and Decompress for
the Stop Time indicated (Fig. 28b).
 The UP Arrow and Stop Bar will flash if you are more than 10
feet (3 meters) deeper than the Required Ceiling Depth.
 Once within 10 feet (3 meters) of, and below, the Required Ceil-
ing Depth, both Arrows and the Stop Bar appear solid.
Deco - Main Display
The amount of decompression Credit time that you receive is de-
pendent on Depth, with slightly less Credit given the deeper you
are below the Stop Depth required.
You should stay slightly deeper than the Required Stop Depth indi-
cated until the next shallower Stop Depth appears. Then, you can
slowly ascend to, but not shallower than that indicated ceiling Stop
Depth.
