Suunto D6I Scuba Diving Equipment User Manual


 
6.1.5. Safety Stops
A three (3) minute Recommended Safety Stop is prompted after every dive to over
10 m.
6.1.6. Stopwatch (Timer)
You can also use a stopwatch during diving for various timing purposes. To activate
the stopwatch in the DIVE mode, long-press the MODE button, then start and stop it
by short-pressing the SELECT button.
6.1.7. Decompression dives
When your NO DEC TIME becomes zero, your dive changes into a decompression
dive. Therefore, you must perform one or more decompression stops on your way to
the surface. The NO DEC TIME on your display will be replaced by an ASC TIME,
and a CEILING notation will appear. An upward pointing arrow will also prompt you
to start your ascent.
If you exceed the no-decompression limits on a dive, the dive computer will provide
the decompression information required for ascent. After this, the instrument will
continue to provide subsequent interval and repetitive dive information.
