A dive computer considerably increases your diving safety but it does not eliminate the remaining risk of serious injury, or death caused by decompression sickness, Oxygen toxicity or some other inherent risk of scuba diving.

 

Do not use this SYMBIOS TANK POD if you are not aware of those risks, or you do not accept those remaining risks.
