1. Safety

Types of safety precautions

WARNING: - is used in connection with a procedure or situation that may result in

serious injury or death.

CAUTION: - is used in connection with a procedure or situation that will result in

damage to the product.

NOTE: - is used to emphasize important information.

TIP: - is used for extra tips on how to utilize the features and functions of the device.

Before you dive

Make sure that you fully understand the use, displays and limitations of your dive instruments. If you have any questions about this manual or dive computer, contact your Suunto dealer before diving. Always remember that YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY!

This dive computer is intended for use with compressed air only.

Safety precautions

WARNING: ONLY TRAINED DIVERS SHOULD USE A DIVE COMPUTER! Insucient training for any kind of diving, including freediving, may cause a diver to commit errors, such as incorrect use of gas mixtures or improper decompression, that may lead to serious injury or death.

WARNING: You must read the printed quick guide and online user guide for your dive computer. Failure to do so may lead to improper use, serious injury or death.

WARNING: THERE IS ALWAYS A RISK OF DECOMPRESSION SICKNESS (DCS) FOR ANY DIVE PROFILE EVEN IF YOU FOLLOW THE DIVE PLAN PRESCRIBED BY DIVE TABLES OR A DIVE COMPUTER. NO PROCEDURE, DIVE COMPUTER OR DIVE TABLE WILL PREVENT THE POSSIBILITY OF DCS OR OXYGEN TOXICITY! An individual’s physiological makeup can vary from day to day. The dive computer cannot account for these variations. You are strongly advised to remain well within the exposure limits provided by the instrument to minimize the risk of DCS. As an added measure of safety, you should consult a physician regarding your ﬁtness before diving.

WARNING: If you have a pacemaker, we recommend you do not scuba dive. Scuba diving creates physical stresses on the body which may not be suitable for pacemakers.

WARNING: If you have a pacemaker, consult a doctor before using this device. The inductive frequency used by the device may interfere with pacemakers.

Suunto D5

WARNING: Allergic reactions or skin irritations may occur when product is in contact with skin, even though our products comply with industry standards. In such event, stop use immediately and consult a doctor.

WARNING: Not for professional use! Suunto dive computers are intended for recreational use only. The demands of commercial or professional diving may expose the diver to depths and conditions that tend to increase the risk of decompression sickness (DCS). Therefore, Suunto strongly recommends that the device not be used for any commercial or professional diving activities.

WARNING: USE BACKUP INSTRUMENTS! Ensure that you use backup instrumentation, including a depth gauge, submersible pressure gauge, timer or watch, and have access to decompression tables whenever diving with a dive computer.

WARNING: For safety reasons, you should never dive alone. Dive with a designated buddy. You should also stay with others for an extended time after a dive as the onset of possible DCS may be delayed or triggered by surface activities.

WARNING: PERFORM PRE-CHECKS! Always check that your dive computer is functioning properly and has the correct settings before diving. Check that the display is working, the battery level is OK, tank pressure is correct, and so forth.

WARNING: Check your dive computer regularly during a dive. If you believe or conclude that there is any problem with any computer function, abort the dive immediately and safely return to the surface. Call Suunto Customer Support and return your computer to an authorized Suunto Service Center for inspection.

WARNING: THE DIVE COMPUTER SHOULD NEVER BE TRADED OR SHARED BETWEEN USERS WHILE IT IS IN OPERATION! Its information will not apply to someone who has not been wearing it throughout a dive, or sequence of repetitive dives. Its dive proﬁles must match that of the user. If it is left on the surface during any dive, the dive computer will give inaccurate information for subsequent dives. No dive computer can take into account dives made without the computer. Thus, any diving activity up to four days prior to initial use of the computer may cause misleading information and must be avoided.

WARNING: DO NOT EXPOSE ANY PART OF YOUR DIVE COMPUTER TO ANY GAS MIX CONTAINING MORE THAN 40% OXYGEN! Enriched air with greater oxygen content presents a risk of ﬁre or explosion and serious injury or death.

WARNING: DO NOT DIVE WITH A GAS IF YOU HAVE NOT PERSONALLY VERIFIED ITS CONTENTS AND ENTERED THE ANALYZED VALUE INTO YOUR DIVE COMPUTER! Failure to verify tank contents and enter the appropriate gas values where applicable into your dive computer will result in incorrect dive planning information.

WARNING: Using a dive planner software such as in Suunto DM5 is not a substitute for proper dive training. Diving with mixed gases has dangers that are not familiar to divers diving with air. To dive with Trimix, Triox, Heliox and Nitrox or all of them, divers must have specialized training for the type of diving they are doing.

Suunto D5

WARNING: Do not use Suunto USB Cable in areas where ﬂammable gases are present. Doing so may cause an explosion.

WARNING: Do not disassemble or remodel Suunto USB Cable in any way. Doing so may cause an electric shock or ﬁre.

WARNING: Do not use Suunto USB cable if cable or parts are damaged.

CAUTION: DO NOT allow the connector pins of the USB cable to touch any conductive surface. This may short circuit the cable, making it unusable.

Emergency ascents

In the unlikely event that the dive computer malfunctions during a dive, follow the emergency procedures provided by your certiﬁed dive training agency to immediately and safely ascend.

3.2. Apnea Timer

Comments for radio approval

This functionality is not available yet.

You can use the apnea timer for interval training when freediving. You can adjust the following settings:

Suunto D5

•

Vent.: ventilation time; this is the starting duration of the time your breathing time. The

time is increased by the increment time for each interval.

•

Incr: increment time; this is added to the ventilation time for each interval. For example, if

your ventilation time is 1:00 minute and your increment time is 0:30 seconds, the

interval ventilation is 1:00, the second is 1:30, the third is 2:00, and so on.

•

Repeats: number of intervals

To adjust apnea timer settings:

3.3. Algorithm Lock

Suunto Fused™ RGBM algorithm is locked for 48 hours if you omit decompression stops for longer than three (3) minutes. When the algorithm is locked, no algorithm information is available and Locked is shown instead. Locking the algorithm is a safety feature, highlighting that the algorithm information is no longer valid.

When you ascend above the decompression ceiling by more than 0.6 m (2 ft), the ceiling parameter turns red with an arrow pointing down appears, and an audio alarm is generated.

In such a condition, you should descend back below the ceiling level to continue the decompression. If you fail to do so within three (3) minutes, Suunto D5 locks the algorithm calculation and displays Locked instead, as shown below. Note that the ceiling value is no longer present.

In this state, you signiﬁcantly increase your risk of decompression sickness (DCS). Decompression information is not available for the next 48 hours after surfacing.

It is possible to dive with the device when the algorithm is locked, but instead of the decompression information, Locked is shown. Diving while the algorithm is locked resets the algorithm lock time back to 48 hours when you surface.

3.4. Ascent Rate

During a dive, the bar on the left indicates ascent rate. One bar step corresponds to 2 m (6.6 ft) per minute.

The bar is also color coded:

•

Green indicates ascent rate is ok, less than 8 m (26.2 ft) per minute

Suunto D5

•

Yellow indicates ascent rate is moderately high, 8-10 m (26-33 ft) per minute

•

Red indicates ascent rate is too high, over 10 m (33 ft) per minute

When maximum allowed ascent rate is exceeded for ﬁve seconds, an alarm is generated. Ascent rate violations result in longer safety stop times.

WARNING: DO NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM ASCENT RATE! Rapid ascents increase the risk of injury. You should always make the mandatory and recommended safety stops after you have exceeded the maximum recommended ascent rate. If this mandatory safety stop is not completed the decompression model will penalize your next dive(s).

3.5. Battery

Customization is divided into four categories:

•

Dive mode name

•

Dive algorithm

•

Gas settings

•

Customize views

Dive mode (name)

Maximum length of the name is 15 characters. Use something short and simple that helps you identify easily the features and information that you have customized on this mode.

Dive algorithm

You can select to use Suunto Fused™ RGBM or no algorithm (see 3.27. Suunto Fused RGBM). If you select no algorithm, Suunto D5 functions as a gauge (bottom timer) in that mode. If you select Suunto Fused RGBM, you have two additional options: personal setting (algorithm conservatism) and altitude setting.

Gas settings

Here you option can be turned on or o. Turn it on to be able to dive with multiple gases. When turned o, the gas menu is simpliﬁed and easier to use with only one gas.

The gas max pO2 setting can be set to manual or ﬁxed. The ﬁxed option means that the selected value is used for all gases and the option to manually edit them in the Gas(es) menu

is disabled. When manual is selected, you can edit the gas max pO2 for each gas individually in the Gas(es) menu.

conﬁgure what you see under the Gas(es) menu in Suunto D5. The multiple gases

3.9. Decompression Dives

If you exceed the no-decompression limit on a dive, Suunto D5 provides the decompression information required for ascent. Ascent information is always presented with two values:

•

ceiling: depth that you should not go above

•

asc. time: optimum ascent time in minutes to surface with given gases

WARNING: NEVER ASCEND ABOVE THE CEILING! You must not ascend above the ceiling during your decompression. In order to avoid doing so by accident, you should stay somewhat below the ceiling.

On a decompression dive, there could be three kinds of stops:

•

Safety stop

•

Deep stop

•

Decompression stop

You can turn deep stops on or can adjust the safety stop time to be 3, 4 or 5 minutes.

The illustration below presents how decompression is displayed on Suunto D5. When you ascend close to the ceiling depth and enter the deco window area, two arrows appear in front of the ceiling number.

o under DIVE SETTINGS / PARAMETERS. In addition, you

Suunto D5

The deco window area is ceiling depth + 3.0 meters (9 ft). This is the area where decompression takes place.The closer to the ceiling you stay, the more optimal the decompression time is.

If you ascend above the ceiling depth, there is still a safe margin area, equal to ceiling depth – 0.6 meters (2 ft). In this safe margin area, decompression calculation still continues, but you are advised to go down below ceiling depth. This is indicated by the ceiling depth number turning yellow with a downward pointing arrow in front of it.

If go above the safe margin area, the decompression calculation is paused until you go back down below this limit. An audible alarm and a downward arrow in front of a red ceiling number indicate unsafe decompression.

If you ignore the alarm and stay above the safe margin for three minutes, Suunto D5 locks the algorithm calculation, and decompression information will not be available anymore on the dive. See 3.3. Algorithm Lock.

Below is a typical decompression dive view showing ascent time and the

ﬁrst required deep

stop at 20.3 meters:

Suunto D5 shows the ceiling value always from the deepest of these stops. deep stop and safety stop ceilings are always at constant depth when you are at the stop. Stop time is counted down in minutes and seconds.

Below is an example of what Suunto D5 displays during deep stop:

Below is an example of what Suunto D5 displays during safety stop:

Suunto D5

With decompression stops, the ceiling is always decreasing while you are near the ceiling depth, providing continuous decompression with optimum ascent time.

Below is an example of what Suunto D5 looks like on decompression stop:

NOTE: It is always recommended to keep close to the decompression ceiling when

ascending.

Ascent time is always the minimum time needed to reach the surface. It includes:

•

Time required for deep stops

•

Ascent time from depth at 10 m (33 ft) per minute

•

Time needed for decompression

WARNING: YOUR ACTUAL ASCENT TIME MAY BE LONGER THAN DISPLAYED BY THE DIVE COMPUTER! The ascent time will increase if you: (1) remain at depth, (2) ascend slower than 10 m/min (33 ft/ min), (3) make your decompression stop deeper than at the ceiling, and/or (4) forget to change the used gas mixture. These factors might also increase the amount of breathing gas required to reach the surface.

3.9.1. Last stop depth

You can adjust the last stop depth for decompression dives under Dive settings / Parameters / Last stop depth. There are three options 3, 4.5 and 6 m (10, 15 and 20 ft).

By default, the last stop depth is 3 m (10 ft). This is the recommended last stop depth.

NOTE: This setting does not aect the ceiling depth on a decompression dive. The last

ceiling depth is always 3 m (10 ft).

3.10. Dive History
