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.
Remove the high pressure (HP) port plug on the first stage of your regulator using an
appropriate tool.
2.
Thread the high pressurehose of the Suunto Cobra3 intothe HP port of your regulator
with your fingers. Tighten the hose fitting with a 16 mm (5/8'') wrench. DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN!
3.
Attach the regulator to the scuba cylinder and slowly open the valve. Check for leaks
by submerging the regulator first stage in water. If leaks are detected, check the
condition of the O-ring and sealing surfaces.
5.8. DIVE mode settings
Suunto Cobra3 has several user-definable functions, as well as depth and time-related
alarms that you can set according to your personal preferences. The DIVE mode settings
are dependent onthe dive submode chosen(AIR, NITROX, GAUGE), sothat, for example,
nitrox settings are only available in the NITROX submode.
The following figure shows how to enter the DIVE mode settings menu.
