INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your choice of the SUUNTO SOLUTION

Dive Computer.
The SOLUTION

is a compact and most sophisticated dive instrument that will
give you years of trouble free and joyful diving. The SOLUTION
á
dive computer
will provide you with important information that you will need during, between, and
after your dives.
Key Features
The SOLUTION
á
monitors and reports vital information such as your dive time,
current depth, maximum depth, no-decompression time and ascent rate. It will give
you visual and audible warnings, as required. Its built-in simulator allows you to get
acquainted with the features and displays of the SOLUTION
á
before diving and to
plan dives before and between dives.
The SOLUTION
á
will also give you information, if through carelessness or
emergency you are forced to exceed the no-decompression limits for any dive.
The SOLUTION
á
has a built-in calendar and clock. It features versatile memory
capabilities, including both detailed profiles and long-term historical data. It can
interface with a PC, allowing for additional log book features and dive simulation.
The instrument can be adjusted for diving at different altitudes or to add an extra
level of conservativeness if desired. The screen is protected against scratches and
damage by a replaceable shield.
The SOLUTION
á
is available either as a wrist unit or mounted in two gauge or
three gauge console or in a hose mounted boot. The modular construction allows
for the separate compass module to be attached to the two gauge console at a later
stage.
Getting Started
A fast way for you to get started with the SOLUTION
á
is to let the built-in dive
simulator demonstrate its features and displays. This is described in Section 2,
"Getting Acquainted with the SOLUTION
á
". Before your first actual dive you must
also read and understand Section 1, "For Your Safety" and Section 3, "Diving with
the SOLUTION
á
" in their entirety. Section 4, "Menu Based Functions" teaches you
how to access the memory functions and simulator, and how to set the altitude/
personal adjustment mode and the clock. Section 5, "PC Interface" gives you some
information on the capability of this optional package. Section 6, "Care and
Maintenance" and Section 7, "Technical Description" gives you detailed information
on these two subjects. Finally, there is warranty information in Section 8, and a
glossary in Section 9.
