hours or to “no reset” (default).
WARNING
Before every dive and after changing the tank,
make sure that the settings for the gas mixture
correspond to the current mixture being used.
An incorrect setting will cause the Aladin
Sport to miscalculate the dive. If the fraction
of oxygen is set too low, oxygen poisoning
can occur without warning. If the value is set
too high, decompression sickness may occur.
Inaccuracies in the calculations are carried
over to repetitive dives.
