Decompression warning

If you exceed the no-decompression limits, the computer enters

decompression mode. An audible alarm sounds for twice for three

seconds and “DECO STOP” blinks, indicating that you have

decompression stop requirements.

Caution: Decompression diving is considered to substantially increase

your risk of decompression illness more than dives made within no-

decompression limits.

Decompression warning with “DECO STOP” and stop-depth

information displayed

(1) Stop symbol: The “DECO STOP” symbols indicate that you need

to stop at the depth displayed.

(2) Deco symbol: The “DECO” symbol displays when you have

decompression requirements.

(3) Required stop time: This is the time you must remain at the
