GAGE

(depth gauge/timer) program

Cressi-sub computer is equipped with a GAGE program

(or depth gauge/timer) intended for the divers who wish to

use the instrument for prolonged table dives or decompres-

sion software dives.

Please be advised tha , if in GAGE, program, does not

make any saturation and de-saturation computation, working

only as a basic instrument, supplying depth, dive time,

together with other accessorial data. In this conditions, the

dive must be planned using proper decompression software

and carried out by means of proper tables.

By the way, Cressi-sub reminds you that sport dives must be

carried out within the no decompression guidelines, at the

maximum depth of 132 ft. which is the limit of

sport

dives: to

exceed such limits dramatically increases the risk of decom-

pression sickness!

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 dives with

gaseous mixtures other than air without proper training.

On the contrary, the diver may be exposed to risks inclu-

ding serious physical damages and, in extreme cases,

even death.

computer’s "GAGE " dive program automatically starts

the functions of depth gauge/timer at depths deeper than 5

ft, and the display will show the following information

(picture 22):

1 current depth value, in meters (m) or feet (ft). The depth

gauge operative range reaches a depth of 199,9 m (656 ft.)

2 dive time, shown by the "DIVE T" icon, given by the timer

in minutes and seconds.

3 maximum depth reached during the dive, given in meters

(m) or feet (ft), shown by the “MAX” icon

4 segmented ascent rate indicator

5 Maximum depth alarm icon (if ON - see 2.5.1)

6 GAGE computing program icon

7 Timer icon
