DO NOT USE THE SCOOTER TO MAINTAIN OR GET THE DECOMPRESSION
QUOTE.
16.
DESCENT RATE
The SCOOTER allows you to accomplish a fast descent rate.
AVOID USING THE SCOOTER to increase the descent rate as it can emphasise
problems related to the decompression and to the psychophysics acquaintance.
17.
ASCENT RATE
The SCOOTER MUST NEVER BE USED FOR VERTICAL ASCENTS. Using it in such
a manner may result in an excessively rapid ascent WHICH IS POTENTIALLY
DANGEROUS. During the ascent DEACTIVATE IT BY TURNING THE MAIN SWITCH
OFF, place it out of the way, and ascend normally.
18.
FREEDIVING USE OF THE SCOOTER
Freediving is highly dangerous activity itself. The use of the SCOOTER for
freediving could cause serious accidents. Always be certain and aware of diver
capabilities. Adequate training courses are essential for diver safety.
19.
DEPTH AND OPERATING ENVIRONMENTS
19.1. DEPTH
DO NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM OPERATING DEPTH.
It is important to remember that maximum SCOOTER operating depth refers to the
SCOOTER in perfect working conditions. Collisions, scratches or deformations
might significantly reduce this limit.
It is strongly recommend to turn the switch in OFF position and leave the
SCOOTER far from areas with currents that could cause the SCOOTER to collide
with rock walls, the sea bottom or boats. Violent collisions could compromise the
SCOOTER’s hermetic seal and irreparably damage it.
During decompression stops turn the SCOOTER OFF in order to avoid accidental
starts and uncontrolled ascent.
