GAGE FUNCTION (depth gauge and timer)
The Newton computer is equipped with a third dive computing program GAGE that does not perform any
saturation and desaturation calculation, but it operates as a basic device, indicating dive depth and time, as
well as some accessory data. Under these conditions the dive must be programmed with specific
decompression software and carried out according to proper dive tables. For such ends, Cressi reminds that all
sport dives must be conducted within the no decompression limits and at a maximum depth of 40 m, limit of
sport dives. Exceeding these limits dramatically increases the possibility of decompression sickness!
IMPORTANT: Newton is designed for sport diving only and not for commercial or professional use which
require longer dive times and greater depths, consequently increasing the risk of decompression sickness.
DANGER: Cressi discourages diving with gaseous mixtures other than air without proper training. The
use of technical dives may expose the diver to different risks than those of sport diving, risks that if the
diver does not perfectly know the mixture these risk can include serious physical damages and, in
extreme cases, death.
IMPORTANT: Before diving make sure that the computer is not locked (during a DIVE WITH NITROX check for
the presence of the word "lock" on the upper left part of the screen). In this case, unlock it, placing the SET
LOCK menu in the OFF position. The word "lock" will disappear.
IMPORTANT: Before diving set the computer to PRE-DIVE by pressing the MODE button without releasing
it, or by accessing the ENTR-DIVE menu. In this way, the computer will start processing the dive
parameters within a maximum of 2 seconds after reaching a depth of 1.2 m. In any case, the dive
computer is automatically activated within 20 seconds of reaching a depth of 1.2 m.
With the GAGE function, the following information will be shown on the display off the dive computer:
1) current depth value, in metres (m) or in feet (ft). The depth gauge operative range reaches a depth of 120 m.
2) dive time, shown by the “DIVE-T” icon, given by the timer in minutes and seconds.
3) maximum depth reached during the dive, given in metres (m) or in feet (ft), indicated by the “MAX” icon
4) ascent rate indicator (arrows).
5) GAGE computing program icon.
6) current temperature, expressed in ºC or ºF.
IMPORTANT: The device will not carry out any saturation and desaturation calculation during the remaining 48
hours elapsing from the end of the dive performed with the GAGE function. Therefore, in this period of time, it
will not allow the device to switch to the dive computer mode for the decompression calculation.
DANGER: Should you decide to reset the device, the nitrogen memory will be cancelled. Therefore, the
device will not be able to calculate the following dive. Before using this function, wait for at least 48
hours after the last diving activity.
USE OF THE COMPUTER WITH POOR VISIBILITY
During your diving activity, light condition may not allow easy reading of the display. Therefore, you can switch
on the backlight by pressing the LIGHT key. The displays backlight lasts for a few seconds, and then it
automatically switches off.
