1. WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF SUUNT O DIVING INSTRUMENTS Suunto Cobra3 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.
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 DIVES THA T REQUIRE DECOMPRESSION STOPS ARE NOT RECOMMENDED. YOU SHOULD ASCEND AND BEGIN DECOMPRESSION IMMEDIA TEL Y WHEN THE DIVE COMPUTER SHOWS YOU THA T A DECOMPRESSION STOP IS REQUIRED! Note the blinking ASC TIME symbol and the upward pointing arrow .
W ARNING SELECT THE CORRECT AL TITUDE ADJUSTMENT SETTING! When diving at altitudes greater than 300 m/1,000 ft the Altitude Adjustment feature must be correctly selected in order for the computer to calculate the decompression status. The dive computer is not intended for use at altitudes greater than 3,000 m/10,000 ft.
3. SUUNTO A T A GLANCE 3.1. Navigating in the menus Suunto Cobra3 has four main operating modes - TIME mode (TIME), DIVE mode (DIVE), PLAN mode (PLAN), and MEMORY mode (MEMOR Y) – as well as the COMP ASS submode, which can be activated from either TIME or DIVE modes.
Main functions Press Button Symbol Enable gas switching in NITROX mode Long UP T oggle between alternative displays Change submode Decrease values Short DOWN Enter Setting mode T oggle between ceiling.
4. GETTING ST ARTED WITH YOUR SUUNTO COBRA3 T o get the most out of your Suunto Cobra3, take some time to personalize it and really make it YOUR computer . Set the correct time and date, as well as the alarms and tones, unit and backlight settings. Then, calibrate and test the compass function.
ADJUST WITH UP AND DOWN BUTTONS. ACCEP T WITH SELECT BUTTON. 4.1.4. Setting the units In the UNITS SETTING mode you can choose to have the units displayed in either the metric or imperial system - meters/feet, Celsius/Fahrenheit etc. ADJUST WITH UP AND DOWN BUTTONS.
AC APPEARS IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER OF THE DISPLA Y , WHEN THE DIVE COMPUTER IS IN CONT ACT WITH W ATER. THIS ALSO ACTIV A TES THE DIVE MODE. Contamination or dirt on the water contact may prevent this automatic activation. It is therefore important that the water contact is kept clean.
T able 4.1. Locked bearing symbols Explanation Symbol Y ou are traveling towards the locked bearing Y ou are 90 (or 270) degrees from the locked bearing Y ou are 180 degrees from the locked bearing Y ou are 120 (or 240) degrees from the locked bearing 4.
HOLD THE DEVICE LEVEL AND SLOWL Y ROT A TE 360°. HOLD THE DEVICE STILL AND SLOWL Y TIL T 90° VERTICALL Y . 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, power lines or electric appliances.
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.
5.4. Nitrox Diving with nitrox provides you with an opportunity to increase bottom times or reduce the risk of decompression illness by reducing the nitrogen content in the gas mix. However , when the gas mix is altered, the oxygen content of the mix is generally increased.
Alarm reason Alarm type Preset alarm time is reached. Continuous beep series for 24 seconds or until any button is pressed. Current time blinks for one minute T able 5.3. Oxygen alarms in NITROX mode Alarm reason Alarm type Set oxygen partial pressure limit is exceeded.
5.7.1. Connecting Suunto Cobra3 to a regulator When purchasing the Suunto Cobra3, we strongly recommend that you have your Suunto representative attach it to the first stage of your regulator . However , if you decide to attach it yourself, follow the steps outlined below: 1.
ADJUST WITH UP AND DOWN BUTTONS. ACCEP T WITH SELECT BUTTON. NOTE With a range of 1 - 999 minutes, the alarm can be set to your planned bottom time, for example.
5.8.5. Setting the sample rate The sample rate controls how often the depth, time, tank pressure, and water temperature is stored in the memory . Y ou can set the dive profile sample rate to 1, 10, 20, 30, or 60 seconds. The factory default setting is 20 seconds.
ADJUST WITH UP AND DOWN BUTTONS. ACCEP T WITH SELECT BUTTON. 5.9. Activation and pre-checks This section describes how to activate the DIVE mode and explains the pre-checks that it is highly recommended you perform before you get into the water . 5.9.
• the correct oxygen percentages are adjusted according to the measured oxygen percentages in your cylinders • the oxygen partial pressure limits are set correctly For more information on the NITROX mode, refer to Section 6.2. Diving in NITROX mode (DIVEnitrox) .
5.9.5. 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 .
5.10. Safety Stops Safety Stops are widely considered good diving practice for recreational diving, and are an integral part of most dive tables. The reasons for performing a Safety Stop include: reducing sub-clinical DCI, microbubble reduction, ascent control, and orientation before surfacing.
WHEN CEILING AND S TOP ARE DISPLA YED, IMMEDIA TEL Y (WITHIN 3 MINUTES) DESCEND TO OR BELOW CEILING. If you continue to violate the Mandatory Safety Stop, the tissue calculation model is affected and the dive computer shortens the available no-decompression time for your next dive.
6. DIVING This section contains instructions on how to operate the dive computer and interpret its displays. Y ou’ll find that this dive computer is easy to use and read.
UP BUTTON TOGGLES BETWEEN DIVE TIME AND WA TER TEMPERATURE. 6.1.2. Bookmark It is possible to record bookmarks in the profile memory during a dive. These bookmarks are displayed when scrolling the profile memory on the display . The bookmarks will also be shown as annotations in the downloadable Suunto Dive Manager PC software.
Low Air Pressure W arnings The dive computer will warn you with three audible double beeps and a blinking pressure display when the cylinder pressure reaches 50 bar/725 psi. Three double beeps are also heard when the cylinder pressure goes down to the user-selected alarm pressure and when the remaining air time reaches zero.
NOTE In addition, there may also be Mandatory Safety Stops which are not displayed in ASC TIME. W ARNING YOUR ACTUAL ASCENT TIME MA Y BE LONGER THAN DISPLA YED BY THE INSTRUMENT! The ascent time will .
UPWARD POINTING ARROW , BLINKING ASC TIME AND AN ALARM TELL YOU TO ASCEND. MINIMUM TOT AL ASCENT TIME INCLUDING MANDA TORY SAFETY STOP IS 15 MINUTES. CEILING IS A T 3 M. Display above the floor When you ascend above the floor , the ASC TIME display stops blinking and the upward pointing arrow disappears.
6.2. Diving in NITROX mode (DIVEnitrox) NITROX mode (DIVEnitrox) is the second dive mode available in Suunto Cobra3 and is used when using oxygen-enriched gas mixtures.
UP BUTTON TOGGLES BETWEEN PO 2 , OLF , DIVE TIME AND WA TER TEMPERA TURE. DOWN BUTTON TOGGLES BETWEEN O 2 , MAXIMUM DEPTH T ANK PRESSURE AND CURRENT TIME. 6.2.3. 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.
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. The center window Dive T imer is activated at the start of the dive and it can be reset during the dive and used as a stopwatch by pressing the SELECT button.
7. AFTER DIVING Once back at the surface, Suunto Cobra3 continues to provide post-dive safety information and alarms. Calculations to enable repetitive dive planning also help to maximize diver safety .
7.4. Flying after diving In DIVE mode, the no-fly time is shown in the center window next to the airplane image. In TIME mode, the airplane image is shown in the top left corner . Flying or traveling to a higher altitude should be avoided at any time when the computer is counting down the no-fly time.
WHEN ENTERING THE PLANNODEC MODE THE DISPLA Y FIRST BRIEFL Y SHOWS TISSUE LOADING, THE REMAINING DESA TURATION TIME BEFORE GOING INT O PLAN MODE. USE UP AND DOWN BUTTONS T O SCROLL DIFFERENT NO-DECOMPRESSION LIMITS. NO-DECOMPRESSION LIMITS LONGER THAN 99 MINUTES ARE DISPLA YED AS “–”.
