Safety Stop Timer
This timer shows the recommended safety stop time while in dive
mode. If the diver descends over 32 feet (9.9m), then comes up to a
depth of 20 feet (6m), this value appears instead of NDL. Safety stop
time starts at 3 minutes and is counted down until the time is 0. The
safety stop timer disappears and NDL appears in its place once the
timer reaches zero.
The timer stops temporarily if the depth becomes equal to or more
than 26.5 feet (8.1m) during which time the counter stops temporarily,
and the NDL display appears again.
The timer is reset if the depth becomes equal to or more than 33 feet
(10 m). (Fig. 24)
If the diver doesn’t follow the safety stop information, the IQ-800
doesn’t impose any penalty.
