Operating instructions
12. You MUST be familiar with all signs and symptoms of decompression sickness before using the Matrix! Seek
IMMEDIATE treatment for decompression sickness should any of these signs or symptoms occur after a dive! There
is a direct correlation between effective treatment and the delay between the onset of symptoms and the treatment
for decompression sickness.
13. Always observe the optical alarm signals of the Matrix. Avoid situations of increased risk for decompression sickness
which are marked with a warning sign in this manual.
14. Never dive the Matrix to its limits, as well as other dive computers and tables. Give yourself a margin of safety by
always leaving a few minutes of no-stop time before making an ascent.
15. Avoid repeated ascent and descents (yo-yo diving) while using the Matrix.
16. DO NOT perform repetitive decompression dives. Doing so greatly increases the risk of decompression sickness.
17. Carefully inspect your Matrix computer for any signs of damage or malfunction before every dive.
