WARNING: Cressi-sub computer is designed for
sport diving only. It is not intended for commercial or pro-
fessional use, requiring longer dive times and greater
depths. Diving beyond the parameters of sport diving dra-
matically increases the risk of decompression sickness.
DANGER: Cressi-sub strongly discourages diving with
gaseous mixtures other than air without proper training. In
such case, the diver may be exposed to risks including serious
physical damages and, in extreme cases, even death.
WARNING: after a dive carried out in GAGE (depth
gauge-timer) mode, the computer does not make any
computation of saturation and de-saturation during the
subsequent 48 hours.
DANGER: should you decide to reset the computer, by
following the procedures shown in chapter 4.6, the nitrogen
memory will be cancelled: therefore, the instrument will not
be able any more to compute a subsequent dive as such.
Never use such function for at least 48 hours after last dive.
To go to GAGE program, depress button A ( ) until the
DIVE menu is visualized, then depress button C ( ),
making the DIVE icon flash. Lastly, depress button D ( ),
and the GAGE icon will appear (picture 8).
NOTE: computer is preset on DIVE program.
GAGE program will be memorized in the computer until the
diver changes the program.
In GAGE program PLAN function is off: it is possible to set only a
maximum depth alarm, which may be switched on or off by
the user by setting the instrument, following the same proce-
dure as shown in chapter 2.7.1.
NOTE: in GAGE function the depth gauge supplies indications
between 0 and 655,8 ft.

FAeE
(or APNOEA) program parameters setting
Cressi-sub computer is equipped with a FAeE (or
apnoea) program, intended for all those divers who want to
use the instrument for apnoea diving, provided they got pro-
per training on all the necessary techniques.
WARNING:
Cressi-sub discourages apnoea dives without
proper training, since the instrument does not replace a cor-
rect information on apnoea diving physiology and risks,
which might be very dangerous to the diver’s safety.
NOTE: apnoea diving, especially when deep and protrac-
ted, may cause serious risks to occur, as for example pro-
longed apnoea syncope, which may cause a sudden and
very dangerous loss of consciousness.
DANGER: Cressi-sub strongly recommends to avoid
any apnoea diving after snorkel dives. Moreover, at least
two hours should elapse since the end of a snorkel dive
before starting an apnoea dive, which anyway should not
exceed the allowed maximum depth of 16 ft.
To get to FAeE program depress button A ( ) until the
DIVE menu is visualized, then depress button C ( ),
making the DIVE icon flash. Lastly, depress button D ( ),
and the FAEE will appear (picture 28).
During an apnoea dive, supplies the dive’s basic para-
meters, that is current depth, maximum depth reached by
