2 Terminology
This chapter will exclusively deal with terminology and display features used while diving with MB levels.
All other features are described in chapter III (->15).

Nitrogen
loading bar
relative to LO
->24
Whereas the
quantitative
information relative to L0 can be seen by pressing the right button,
qualitative
information is always visible on the display in form of the nitrogen loading bar. In par-
ticular, when the L0 no-stop time is less than three minutes, the nitrogen bar will flash ->24. This
will help you avoid entering inadvertently into decompression.
