Safety considerations
I UWATEC Aladin PRIME
You must carefully read and understand this entire manual before using your Aladin
PRIME.
Diving has many inherent risks. Even if you follow the instructions of this
manual in a careful manner, it is still possible that you may be seriously injured
or die from decompression sickness, oxygen toxicity or some other inherent
risk of scuba with Nitrox or compressed air. Unless you are fully aware of these
risks and are willing to personally accept and assume responsibility for those
risks, do not use Aladin
PRIME.
Guidelines for the use of Aladin PRIME
:
The following guidelines for using Aladin PRIME
are derived from the latest medical research and the
recommendations of the American Academy of Underwater Sciences for diving with diving comput-
ers. Following these guidelines will greatly increase your safety while diving, but cannot guarantee that
decompression sickness or oxygen toxicity will not occur.
Aladin PRIME is designed for dives with compressed air (21% O
2
) and Nitrox (22 to 50% O
2
) only. Do
not use Aladin PRIME
for dives made with other mixed gases.
It is absolutely necessary to check the set mixture before each dive and to compare it to the gas
mixture currently used. Always remember: setting an incorrect mixture carries an inherent risk of
decompression sickness and/or oxygen toxicity! Maximum deviation from the measured mixture must
not exceed 1% O
2
. An incorrect gas mixture can be lethal!
Only use Aladin PRIME
with open circuit breathing systems.
Only use Aladin PRIME
for diving with an independent breathing apparatus. Aladin PRIME is not
designed for long term exposures with Nitrox.
Always observe the visual and audible alarm signals. Avoid situations of increased risk which are
marked with a warning sign in this operating manual.
Aladin PRIME has a ppO
2
warning. The default limit is set at 1.4bar ppO
2
max. It can be changed
between 1.2 and 1.6bar.
Frequently check the "oxygen clock" (CNS O
2
). Ascend and finish the dive if the CNS O
2
exceeds
75%.
Never dive deeper than the Maximum Operating Depth (MOD) pertinent to the gas mixture in use.
Always check the diving limits considering the oxygen content and standard sports diving procedures
(decompression sickness, oxygen toxicity).
In accordance with the recommended maximum diving limit of all instructional agencies, do not dive
deeper than 40 metres/130 feet.
The danger of nitrogen narcosis has to be taken into consideration
. Aladin PRIME
gives no warning
about this.
On all dives, with or without dive computer, make a safety stop for at least 3 minutes at 5 metres (15 feet).
All divers using dive computers to plan dives and indicate or determine decompression status must
use their own computer, which they take with them on all dives.
If Aladin PRIME fails at any time during the dive, the dive must be terminated, and appropriate surfac-
ing procedures (including a slow ascent and a 3 to 5 minute safety stop at 5m
/15ft
) should be initiated
immediately.
Comply with the ascent rate and carry out any decompression stop required. If the computer should
fail for any reason, you must ascend at a rate of 10m / 30ft per minute or less.
On any given dive, both divers in a buddy pair must follow the most conservative dive computer for
that particular dive.
Never dive without a buddy. Aladin PRIME does not substitute for a dive buddy.
Only make dives that are appropriate to your level of dive training. Aladin PRIME does not increase
your knowledge of diving.
Always dive with back-up instruments. Make sure that you always use back-up instrumentation
including a depth gauge, submersible pressure gauge, digital bottom timer or dive watch, and have
access to decompression tables whenever diving with a dive computer.
Avoid repeated ascents and descents (yo yo diving).
