1. WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF SUUNTO DIVING INSTRUMENTS Suunto D9 was designed to help you get the most out of your diving. By reading this manual and becoming familiar with the functions of your dive computer , you can begin a new era in your diving - one in which all dive-critical data can be seen on your wrist.
Suunto D9 is the world’s first dive computer to integrate a digital compass, wireless tank data reception, and gas switching. It simplifies your diving experience because all the information you nee.
2. W ARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND NOTES Throughout this manual, important safety icons are displayed. Three classifications are used to separate these icons by their order of importance: W ARNING is used in.
W ARNING 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 illness (DCI).
W ARNING SUUNTO STRONGL Y RECOMMENDS THA T SPORT DIVERS LIMIT THEIR MAXIMUM DEPTH TO 40 M/130 FT OR T O THE DEPTH CALCULA TED BY THE COMPUTER BASED ON THE SELECTED O 2 % AND A MAXIMUM PO 2 OF 1.4 BAR! W ARNING DIVES THA T REQUIRE DECOMPRESSION STOPS ARE NOT RECOMMENDED.
W ARNING YOU ARE ADVISED TO A VOID FL YING ANY TIME THE COMPUTER COUNTS DOWN THE NO-FL Y TIME. ALW A YS ACTIV A TE THE COMPUTER TO CHECK THE REMAINING NO- FL Y TIME PRIOR TO FL YING! Flying or traveling to a higher altitude within the no-fly time can greatly increase the risk of DCI.
W ARNING DO NOT DIVE WITH A CYLINDER OF ENRICHED AIR IF YOU HA VE NOT PERSONALL Y VERIFIED ITS CONTENTS AND ENTERED THE ANAL YZED V ALUE INTO YOUR DIVE COMPUTER! Failure to verify cylinder contents and enter the appropriate O 2 % into your dive computer will result in incorrect dive planning information.
W ARNING SELECT THE CORRECT PERSONAL ADJUSTMENT SETTING! Whenever it is believed that factors that tend to increase the possibility of DCI exist, it is recommended that you use this option to make the calculations more conservative. Failure to select the correct Personal Adjustment setting will result in erroneous dive and planning data.

NOTE When accessed from DIVE mode, toggle between the alternative displays by pressing the UP/DOWN buttons.
4.4.2. Locking a bearing A bearing can be locked to help you follow a selected course, and directional arrows point towards the locked bearing. Locked bearings are stored in the memory for later analysis and are available the next time the compass is activated.
Explanation Symbol Y ou are 120 (or 240) degrees from the locked bearing 4.4.3. Compass settings Y ou can define the compass settings (declination and calibration) when in COMP ASS mode: Declination Y ou can compensate for the difference between true north and magnetic north by adjusting the compass declination.
Calibration Because of changes in the surrounding magnetic field, the Suunto D9 electronic compass occasionally needs to be re-calibrated. During the calibration process, the compass adjusts itself to the surrounding magnetic field.
If the calibration fails several times in a row , it is possible that you are in an area with sources of magnetism, such as large metal objects, powerlines or electric appliances. Move to another location and try to calibrate the compass again. If the calibration continues to fail, contact an authorized Suunto service center .
5. BEFORE DIVING Do not attempt to use the dive computer without reading this user's manual in its entirety , including all the warnings. Make sure that you fully understand the use, displays, and limitations of the instrument.
5.1. The Suunto RGBM/Deep Stop Algorithm Suunto’s Reduced Gradient Bubble Model (RGBM), utilized in the Suunto D9 , predicts both dissolved and free gas in the blood and tissues of divers. It is a significant advance on the classic Haldane models, which do not predict free gas.
5.3. Dive computer limitations While the dive computer's calculations are based on current decompression research and technology , it is important to realize that the computer cannot monitor the actual physiological functions of an individual diver .
Anyone who engages in any form of breathhold diving is in danger of shallow-water blackout (SWB), that is, the sudden loss of consciousness caused by oxygen starvation. Any breathhold diving results in some nitrogen build-up in the blood and other fast tissues.
T able 5.1. Audible and visual alarm types Alarm reason Alarm type Dive computer is activated. Short single beep Dive computer automatically returns to the TIME mode. Cylinder pressure reaches 50 bar/725 psi. The cylinder pressure display will start to blink.
Y ou are able to preset alarms before the dive. The programmable alarms can be set for maximum depth, dive time and time. See also Section 5.9. DIVE mode settings and Section 4.1. TIME mode settings . T able 5.2. Preset alarm types Alarm reason Alarm type Preset maximum depth is reached.
T able 5.3. Oxygen alarms in NITROX mode Alarm reason Alarm type Set oxygen partial pressure limit is exceeded. The alternative display is replaced with a current blinking PO 2 value. Y ou should immediately ascend above the PO 2 depth limit. Continuous beeps for 3 minutes and activated backlight OLF value reaches 80%.
5.7. Error conditions The dive computer has warning indicators that alert you to react to certain situations that would significantly increase the risk of DCI. If you do not respond to its warnings, the dive computer will enter an Error mode, indicating that the risk of DCI has greatly increased.
5.8. Wireless transmission The D9 can be used together with an optional wireless cylinder pressure transmitter that easily attaches to the high-pressure port of the regulator . By using the transmitter , you can benefit from receiving cylinder pressure and remaining air time data direct to your wrist.
5.8.2. Pairing and code selection In order to receive wireless data, the transmitter and the Suunto D9 need to be paired. During the pairing procedure, the transmitter and dive computer select a common transmission code.
4. T ake the Suunto D9 wrist unit close to the transmitter . The unit will then quickly display the selected code number and then start displaying the transmitted cylinder pressure. A lightning symbol is displayed every time the Suunto D9 receives a valid signal.
5.8.3. T ransmitting data After the pairing procedure, the Suunto D9 will receive cylinder pressure data from the transmitter . The pressure is displayed in either bars or psi, depending on the unit selected. Any time the Suunto D9 receives an appropriate signal it flashes the lightning figure in the display’s lower left corner .

USE UP AND DOWN BUTTONS TO T OGGLE BETWEEN DIVE SETTINGS. NOTE The settings cannot be activated until 5 minutes has elapsed after the dive. 5.9.1. Setting the depth alarm Y ou can set a depth alarm in the dive computer . ADJUST WITH UP AND DOWN BUTTONS.
The depth alarm is factory-set to 40 m/131 ft, but you can adjust it according to your personal preference, or switch it off altogether . The depth range can be set from 3m to 100 m/9 ft to 328 ft.
In order to minimize the risk of error during a dive, it is highly recommended that the mixes are set in the proper order . This means that as the mix number rises, so does oxygen content, and this is the order they are usually used during the dive.
5.9.4. Setting the personal/altitude adjustments The current Altitude and Personal Adjustment settings are displayed in the startup screen when entering the DIVE mode. If the mode does not match the altitude or personal conditions (see Section 5.10.4.
5.9.6. Setting the Safety Stops/Deep Stops The Deep Stop setting allows you to choose between traditional Safety Stops or Deep Stops. If Deep Stops are set to OFF , the traditional Safety Stop calculation is used. If set to ON, iterative Deep Stops will be prompted instead.
5.9.8. T ank pressure The wireless transmission can be set “ON” or “OFF” depending whether the optional wireless pressure transmitter is used or not. No cylinder pressure-related data is shown, nor data reception made, when this selection is “OFF”.
5.9.10. HP code The HP Code setting allows you to verify the selected code and to erase the stored code. It also enables re-pairing if necessary . ADJUST WITH UP AND DOWN BUT TONS.
5.10.2. DIVE mode activation The dive computer activates automatically when submerged deeper than 0.5 m/1.5 ft. However , it is necessary to activate the DIVE mode BEFORE diving to check the cylinder pressure, altitude and personal adjustment settings, battery condition, oxygen settings etc.

5.10.3. Battery power indication T emperature or internal oxidation of the battery affect the battery voltage. If the instrument is stored for a long period, or used in cold temperatures, the low battery warning may be displayed even though the battery has enough capacity .
5.10.4. Diving at altitude The dive computer can be adjusted both for diving at altitude and also to increase the conservatism of the mathematical nitrogen model. When programming the instrument for the correct altitude, you need to select the correct Altitude Adjustment settings according to T able 5.
5.10.5. Personal adjustments There are personal factors that can affect your susceptibility to DCI, which you can predict in advance, and input into the decompression model. Such factors vary between divers and also for the same diver from one day to another .
T able 5.7. Personal Adjustment settings Desired tables Condition Personal adjustment value Default Ideal conditions P0 Progressively more conservative Some risk factors or conditions exist P1 Several.
Effect Desired T ables RGBM setting Smaller RGBM effects, higher risk! Attenuated RGBM model 50% 5.1 1. Safety Stops Safety Stops are widely considered good diving practice for recreational diving, and are an integral part of most dive tables.
WHEN STOP IS DISPLA YED, MAKE A RECOMMENDED SAFETY STOP FOR 3 MINUTES. NOTE The Recommended Safety Stop, as the name implies, is recommended. If it is ignored, there is no penalty applied to the following surface intervals and dives.
WHEN CEILING AND STOP ARE DISPLA YED, MAKE A ONE MINUTE MANDA TORY SAFETY STOP IN THE DEPTH ZONE BETWEEN 6 M AND 3 M. Y ou must not ascend shallower than 3 m/10 ft with the Mandatory Safety Stop warning on. If you ascend above the Mandatory Safety Stop ceiling, a downward pointing arrow will appear and a continuous beeping starts.
5.12. Deep stops The Suunto D9 allows you to choose a Deep Stop algorithm instead of the traditional Recommended Safety Stop. Deep Stops are safety stops that occur deeper than traditional stops, with the purpose of minimizing microbubble formation and excitation.

Oxygen limit fraction (OLF) If set to NITROX mode, in addition to tracking the diver's exposure to nitrogen, the instrument tracks the exposure to oxygen.
The Oxygen Limit Fraction (OLF) displays only the value of the higher of the two calculations. The oxygen toxicity calculations are based on the factors listed in Section 9.3 “Oxygen exposure”. 6.2.4. Gas change and multiple breathing gas mixes The Suunto D9 allows gas changes to enabled gas mixes during the dive.
6.3. Diving in GAUGE mode (DIVEgauge) If set to GAUGE mode, the dive computer can be used as a bottom timer or as a freediving instrument. In the GAUGE mode, the total dive time is always displayed in minutes in the lower right corner . In addition, a Dive T imer in the center window displays time in minutes and seconds.
7. AFTER DIVING 7.1. At the surface Once back at the surface, Suunto D9 continues to provide post-dive safety information and alarms. Calculations to enable repetitive dive planning also help to maximize diver safety . 7.1.1. Surface interval An ascent to any depth shallower than 1.
• the oxygen partial pressure labeled PO 2 • the current oxygen toxicity exposure labeled OLF 7.1.2. Dive numbering Several repetitive dives are considered to belong to the same repetitive dive series when the dive computer has not counted the no-fly time to zero.
7.1.3. Repetitive dive planning The Suunto D9 includes a dive planner that allows you to review the no-decompression limits on a subsequent dive, taking the residual nitrogen loading of previous dives into consideration. The Dive Planning mode is explained in Section Dive Planning mode (MEMplan) in Section 7.
• If a diver has less than 2 hours total accumulated dive time in the last 48 hours, a 12 hour surface interval before flying is recommended • Following any dive that required a decompression stop.
When entering the MEMplan mode, the display first briefly shows the remaining desaturation time before going into plan mode. By pressing the UP/DOWN buttons, you can scroll the no-decompression limits in 3 m/10 ft increments ending at 45 m/150 ft. No-decompression limits longer than 99min are displayed as “—“.
