Warm-up dives (BLOODSH)
This function is useful when you want to take a dive to a certain depth in order to
reduce the risk of pulmonary edema.
Many researchers suggest that at the root of freediving hemoptysis is an increase
in pressure in the pulmonary capillaries.
A series of gradual dives, beginning at shallow depths, appears to be an excellent
method for decreasing the onset of this neurological condition.
The depth that can be set varies from 30m (98 ft) to 120m (393 ft) in increments
of 5 m (16 ft). The watch factory setting is OFF.
As an example, if the function is set to 50 m (164 ft), the watch will display the
BLOODSHIFT icon, while at the same time showing a series of three warm-up
dives.
the first (1° BLOODSHIFT) to -5m (-16 ft)
the second (2° BLOODSHIFT) to -10m (-33 ft)
the third (3° BLOODSHIFT) to -25m (82 ft) (half of the depth set).
