Section 2 Diving with the Quantum AWARNING: Never use the Quantum unless it has been with you since the first dive. Using a "clean" computer (no residual nitrogen) after you have already made a dive(s) may result in the computer allowing you more no-decompression time than you really have. In addition, never share or swap computers. Any of these practices may result in decompression sickness. Pre-Dive Checklist Before making a dive, it is important that you make sure you go through the following checklist: 1. Make sure the time and date is set correctly. Remember, the Quantum records the time and date of each dive into memory. 2. Check the Altitude sector and make sure it matches the altitude of the dive site. 3. Go into Dive Settings Mode (page 15) and make sure all the parameters are set correctly, including the water type, safety factor, profile recording interval, and F02 settings for mix 1 & mix 2. |
