   MODE SET (MODE-S)

This function lets you choose the mode you want to use. 
To enter this function from the MODE-S menu, press the 

SEL       

button. 

The first line will show the word SET and will show the mode that is currently 
selected (flashing). 
Scroll using the UP   /DOWN   buttons to select the FREE mode to use while 
free diving, or OFF mode, which will disable the pressure sensor.
OFF mode 

 can be useful for example when you're in the pool, snorkeling, 

or whenever you don't want to record dives to your computer. OFF mode also 
helps extend the life of the battery.
Confirm the mode you want by pressing 

SEL       

 until you hear the confirmation 

beep. 
Press the 

ESC

 button to return to the main menu. 

WARNING

: 

If your dive computer is in OFF mode we recommend that you 

unlock it before each dive.  For safety reasons, the computer will remain locked 
even during the dive, and you can only unlock it by returning to the surface 
and raising it out of the water. Once unlocked, it will not take into account time 
spent in the water up to that point. We therefore recommend that you do not 
proceed with the dive immediately after unlocking.
