WELCOME TO AERIS !
AND
THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING THE ATMOS
 ai
 !
Your ATMOS
 ai 
presents the information that you need before, during, and after your air (or nitrox)
dives using a combination of easy to read displays and identification icons.  It can also be set to oper-
ate simply as a digital depth gauge/timer.
This instructional guide is intended to help you become familiar with the functions and features avail-
able and show you examples of displays that you could expect to see in the various operational
modes.  Ensure that you read through this complete Owner's Guide.
Remember that the rules you learned in your basic scuba certification course(s) still apply to the div-
ing you will do while using a dive computer - some will become even more important.  Technology is
no substitute for common sense, and a dive computer only provides the person using it with data, not
the knowledge to use it.
Since the ATMOS
 ai can
 be used when diving with either Air or Nitrox, the term Breathing Gas is used
in this manual.
  Breathing Gas is the gaseous mixture breathed during a dive.
  Air is a breathing gas that contains approximately 21% oxygen and 79% nitrogen (nature's com-
mon nitrogen-oxygen mixture).
  Nitrox is a nitrogen-oxygen breathing gas that contains a higher fraction of oxygen than air
(>21%).
