Suunto Vyper2 [22/55] Battery power indication

And, if set to NITROX mode, make sure that:

•

the correct number of mixes is set and that the oxygen percentages are adjusted

according to the measured nitrox blends in your cylinders

•

the oxygen partial pressure limits are set correctly

For more information on the NITROX mode, refer to Section 6.2. Diving in NITROX mode

(DIVEnitrox).

The dive computer is now ready for diving.

5.8.3. Battery power indication

Temperature or internal oxidation of the battery affect the battery voltage. If the instrument

is stored for a long period, or used in cold temperatures, the low battery warning may be

displayed even though the battery has enough capacity. In these cases, re-enter DIVE

mode to receive the battery power indication.

After the battery check, the Low Battery Warning is indicated by the battery symbol.

If the battery symbol is displayed in the Surface mode, or if the display is faded or weak,

the battery may be too low to operate the dive computer, and battery replacement is

recommended.

NOTE

For safety reasons, the backlight cannot be activated when the low

battery warning is indicated by the battery symbol.

5.8.4. Diving at altitude

The dive computer can be adjusted both for diving at altitude and also to increase the

conservatism of the mathematical nitrogen model.

When programming the instrument for the correct altitude, you need to select the correct

Altitude Adjustment settings according to Table 5.4, Altitude Adjustment settings. The dive

computer will adjust its mathematical model according to the entered altitude setting, giving

shorter no-decompression times at higher altitudes (see Table 9.1, No-decompression

time limits for various depths (m) and Table 9.2, No-decompression time limits for various

depths (ft) in Section 9.2. RGBM).

Table 5.4. Altitude Adjustment settings

Altitude rangeAlt. adjustment value

0 - 300 m / 0 - 1000 ftA0

300 - 1500 m / 1000 - 5000 ftA1

1500 - 3000 m / 5000 - 10 000 ftA2

NOTE

Section 5.7.4. Setting the personal/altitude adjustments describes

how the Altitude value is set.

WARNING

Traveling to a higher elevation can temporarily cause a change in the

equilibrium of dissolved nitrogen in the body. It is recommended that

you acclimatize to the new altitude by waiting at least three hours

before diving.
