Exceeding the Depth Limit
If your watch exceeds its dive depth rating of 40 m (131.2 ft) and a dive depth limit of 45 m (147.6 ft), the watch will stop reporting depth measurements until you ascend above the depth limit.
If your watch exceeds the depth limit of 45 m (147.6 ft) during a dive, you will be unable to start any additional scuba diving activities for the next 24 hours.
Your watch is dive certified up to a dive depth rating of 40 m (131.2 ft.). When you exceed a dive depth limit of 45 m (147.6 ft.), the watch stops reporting the depth, and No Guidance appears on the screen. When you ascend above 45 m (147.6 ft.), the watch continues reporting the depth. Information that requires accurate tissue loading is unavailable for the remainder of the dive, including no decompression limit (NDL) time, stop times, and time to surface (TTS).
After exceeding the depth limit in a dive, the Scuba Dive activity is unavailable for 24 hours to prevent inaccurate guidance. You cannot disable the Deco Lockout feature after violating the dive depth rating of the watch (Advanced Dive Settings).
