Entering the water
Dive Planning
WARNING
Your KAON in Gauge Mode acts as a bottom timer – it calculates the duration of your dive, its depth,
and other simple parameters. It does not make any decompression calculations, nor does it provide any
decompression information. You will need to use other means (tables, desktop decompression planners,
dive computers, etc.) to plan your dive.
Never attempt to plan a decompression dive without proper training.
Although your KAON in Gauge Mode does not provide any decompression information, it will be a
great tool in assisting you to execute a pre-planned dive.
IMPORTANT NOTE ON SWITCHING TO/FROM GAUGE MODE
In Gauge Mode, surface off-gassing continues when the device is above
water. Once the device is underwater, all deco calculations are suspended.
When switching from Gauge Mode to Rec/Tec Mode, the deco information
will no longer be accurate, since previous tissue values are used.
When you switch out of Gauge Mode, you will see this warning:
Tap Left to continue.
We recommend that you switch your KAON on yourself before you enter the water to check the
remaining battery power and to make sure that all is functioning properly. You can turn it on by
tapping the unit in the “Down” direction three/five times.
Turning Your KAON On
Otherwise, it will turn on automatically few seconds after you take it deeper than 1.6 meters / 5.25 feet.
When you start to descend and go below 1.6 meters / 5.25 feet, your KAON will turn into dive mode.
