WARNINGS and SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
• Diving at high altitude requires special knowledge of the variations imposed upon divers,
their activities, and their equipment by the decrease in atmospheric pressures. Oceanic rec-
ommends completion of a specialized Altitude training course by a recognized training
agency prior to diving in high altitude lakes or rivers.
• Altitude compensation provided by the Data Plus 2 takes place when the unit is activated.
DO NOT dive at any different altitude until the Data Plus 2 shuts off. It will recalibrate au-
tomatically when reactivated at the new altitude.
• When returning to lower altitudes, diving should not be conducted until the Data Plus 2 au-
tomatically clears of any residual nitrogen and oxygen loading and resets to operate at the
new altitude.
• Decompression diving is inherently hazardous and greatly increases your risk of decompres-
sion sickness - even when performed according to the computer's calculations.
• Using the Data Plus 2, just as using the U.S. Navy, or other, No Decompression Tables, is no
guarantee of avoiding decompression sickness, i.e. “the bends.”
