HOW TO USE DIVE COMPUTER FUNCTIONS
■ NITROX DIVING FUNCTION
● The percentage of oxygen in the air used for ordinary diving is 21%. The higher percentage of oxygen in the gas mixture means a lower
percentage of nitrogen than ordinary air, reducing the risk of decompression sickness.
WARNING
● This function should be used only when you dive with
a gas mixture of oxygen and nitrogen other than
ordinary air. When diving with air, be sure to set the
percentage of oxygen (FO
2) to “Air”.
● Never use the watch for diving with any value other
than the actual percentage of oxygen in your tank set
for FO
2.
● If you have set FO2 for nitrox diving, be sure to re-check
the FO2 setting before a dive. On the day following the
day you made a nitrox dive, “– –” is displayed in place
of the FO
2 setting, “Nx” flashes, and the watch cannot
be used for diving. In that case, set FO2 again.
● By setting “Air” for FO2, the percentage of oxygen is set to 21% as in the ordinary air. FO2 can be set from 22% to 50% according to
the gas mixture of your scuba tank.
● When a value between 22 and 50 is set for FO2, the nitrox mark “Nx” appears on the display, and the watch is shifted for nitrox diving.
● The watch calculates the no-decompression limit, residual nitrogen and other data according to the FO2 you have set.
