ADDITIONAL WARNINGS and SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
• There are few legitimate excuses for making unplanned Decompression dives, and the conse-
quences of this type of diving can be severe. By making an unplanned Decompression dive
without the necessary preparation and training, you will have placed yourself in an unneces-
sarily dangerous situation. Allow a surface interval of at least 24 hours before reentering
the water in the event a dive requires emergency decompression.
• By entering decompression, you automatically impose a “ceiling” above you which you can-
not immediately ascend beyond, denying you free access to the surface.
• Exiting the water with the Nitrogen Bar Graph in the red decompression zone greatly in-
creases the risk of decompression sickness, and may result in injury or death.
• Existing data for making planned decompression dives is extremely limited, and virtually
nonexistent for repetitive decompression diving. Decompression diving greatly increases
your risk of decompression sickness.
• Decompression diving, or diving deeper than 130 feet (39 m), will greatly increase your risk
of decompression sickness.
• AERIS does not advocate diving to depths below 130 feet (39 meters), the basis for which is
purely theoretical.
