8. DIVING MODE
MAKING ACCURATE DEPTH READINGS
Switch the watch to the diving mode shortly before diving.
When there is a great difference between the air and water temperature, immerse
the watch in the water for 2-3 minutes before switching it into the diving mode.
Confi rm that the mode hand points to „DIV" and the function hand points to „0"
when the watch is switched to the diving mode. If the hands are in the wrong
position an all reset is required.
ATTENTION: Never pull out or turn the crown or press the buttons while diving.
Doing so may cause water to penetrate the case.

8. DIVING MODE
HIGH ALTITUDE/FRESHWATER DIVING
When the diving mode is activated, the depth is calibrated at 0 meter based on the surrounding air
pressure. This enables the watch to be used while diving at high altitudes and/or in lakes, as long
as the diving mode is activated at the altitude.
However, an accurate measurement is not possible at altitudes over 4.000 meters. Do not use
this watch when diving in such places. Further, this watch displays changes in depth based on a
standard of seawater (density 1.025). Depths indicated in fresh water will actually be about 2.5%
over indicated.
Be sure to complete appropriate safety training before
diving in fresh water or at high altitudes.
ATTENTION: 20 meters (indicated depth) x 1.025 = 20,5 meters (actual/real depth).
