automatically activate the dive-mode.
3.2 Preparation for a Dive with pressure transmitter
The following description of the preparation of a dive is based on the assumption that the pressure trans-
mitter is mounted correctly at the HP-outlet of the regulator (see pages 36, 37) and that it is paired with
Aladin
®
Air Z O
2
(see page 38).
If the Aladin
®

pressure transmitter is not correctly mounted or is not
correctly paired, it will not perform properly and serious injury or death may
result.
1. Mount regulator with pressure transmitter on tank.
2. Check the reserve valve of your tank, the reserve valve must be open.
If a reserve or “J“-type valve is used, the valve must be in the open (down)
position for the Aladin
®
Air Z O

to work correctly.
3. Switching on Aladin

manually:
Bridge contacts B and E
with moistened fingers. Check test display: are
all displays lit?
4. Open valve (pressure transmitter switches on automatically).
