1. Diving Safety Guide
1.1
Please ensure that you fully understand how to use your dive equipment and
the CR-5 dive function and what the information displayed on this product
means. If you have any questions about this product, please always contact
your CREST dealer for answers prior to your diving activity and use.
Remember, your safety is your responsibility, so please pay attention to all
details and do not ignore any signs of discomfort!
1.2
Please be sure to read and thoroughly understand the entire contents of the
CR-5 Diving Instruction Manual. Any confusion or negligence, failure to follow
the contents of the Instruction Manual, or failure to follow normal operating
practices may result in serious injury to life or even death.
1.3
The CR-5 diving function is designed for recreational diving use only, and
CREST strongly advocates that this device should not be used for commercial
or professional diving activities. Anyone engaged in commercial or professional
diving is often exposed to depths and conditions beyond those for which the
watch was designed, which may result in the occurrence of Decompression
Illness (DCI).
1.4
This product is not a substitute for formal diving education and training. Only
divers who have received formal training from a professional dive operator and
know how to operate the dive equipment should use this product.
1.5
Each dive may carry a risk of decompression sickness and even if you follow
your dive plan or the calculations of the dive plan and dive information shown
on this product, the product cannot anticipate and measure changes in
individual physiology. Therefore, divers should try to stay within the limits
indicated by the product.
1.6
It is recommended that you seek the consent of your physician before
engaging in diving activities. There is no algorithm, formula, theorem, dive
computer or dive program that can completely eliminate the chance of
decompression sickness or oxygen toxicity. Individual physiology varies
depending on environmental factors and therefore this product cannot fully
protect you from injuries associated with diving activities.
"The best way to completely avoid injuries associated with diving
activities is not to engage in them."
1.7
This product is not guaranteed to be in full functional condition at all times.
Always carry a depth gauge, pressure gauge, timer and hand gauge as backup
instruments and always compare your dive plan and check the remaining
residual pressure.
Page 4

1.8
This product is factory tested to a depth of 100 m/330 ft and is intended for
recreational diving only. CREST strongly recommends that recreational divers
do not exceed the maximum depth of 40 m/131 ft specified for recreational
diving (air diving), or the maximum depth allowed by your dive training, and do
not use it in diving environments where you are not trained to dive within the
depth limits of your training.
"Your safety is your own responsibility, and to challenge risk is to
challenge your luck."
1.9
CREST strongly discourages recreational divers from engaging in diving
activities that require the performance of decompression, or diving above the
No Decompression Limit (NDL). Decompression diving activities require
specialist training and an adequate air supply.
As soon as you exceed the NDL or the product signals that you are
recommended to perform a decompression dwell, you should immediately stop
diving and begin a slow rise and decompression procedure. Please pay close
attention to the flashing digits, warning tone and vibration warning, and pay
attention to the ascent speed, dwell depth and time of the product, there may
be multiple recommended dwell depths and times, we suggest you follow the
instructions and complete the dwell.
1.10
This product can assist in calculating dive no-decompression limits etc., but it
does not mean that you can skip the dive planning process etc. If your dive
plan is more conservative, please always give priority to your dive plan.
1.11
To ensure that the display of the product is correct and complete, before each
dive, you should start the product correctly and check its functions, and make
sure that the battery power is sufficient, the oxygen concentration setting, the
personalization setting, and adjust other settings to make sure they are
compatible with your dive plan.
1.12
Any diving activity undertaken prior to the first activation of this product may
result in misleading information. If the product is left on the surface and not
dived with the diver, the dive computer meter will not provide accurate dive
planning and dive information calculations for subsequent dives.
1.13
Divers must not exchange or share this product with each other, and their
internal dive information must match the original user in order to ensure the
correctness of the dive plan and dive information displayed subsequently; their
internal information cannot be transferred to divers who do not wear it in its
entirety, and it cannot be used for subsequent repeat dives.
1.14
Before diving, please make sure that the settings of this product are correct and
fit your dive plan, e.g. the oxygen ratio of the gas to be used, and input them
into this product. Failure to personally confirm the contents of the oxygen
cylinder, or to set the correct personalized adjustment settings, may result in
incorrect calculation of the dive plan and dive information, and in severe cases
may result in the diver's life being in danger.
Page 5

1.15
The input value of the oxygen concentration percentage of this product is only
accepted as an integer, please do not remove the decimal point by yourself
when inputting. The recommended input method is the unconditional rounding
method, for example, if your cylinder measurement is 31.8%, please input the
oxygen concentration value: 32%. The decimal point will be underestimated
and will result in incorrect calculation of the dive information, which may lead to
life threatening divers.
1.16
Divers should avoid flying during the period when this product shows the
proposed no-fly countdown. You should also check that the ban is lifted before
flying. Flying or traveling to high altitude areas during the no-fly period may
significantly increase the risk of developing decompression sickness. Please
review the recommendations of the Diver Alert Network (DAN).
1.17
This device contains a lithium battery. To avoid the risk of fire or combustion, do
not attempt to disassemble, crush, puncture, or throw the device into a fire or
leave it in water for a long period of time. If the device is damaged and you
wish to dispose of it, please dispose of it properly or recycle it in accordance
with the regulations in your area.
