Hi,
I purchased the Suunto Gekko a few months ago but I've been really busy so I haven't really been able to dive. With summer on the way though I plan to start diving again...a lot. So I finally sat down and began reading throught the manual on the Gekko to learn how to use it properly.
First of all, from what I read it seems that it automatically alerts you when you should make safety stops, is this true? Or do you have to set it? Also, could someone explain to me the purpose of the no-decompression stop time? I barely understand the purpose of the Green, Yellow, and Red Zone. Do they just correspond to how soon you should come up? Red meaning to come up immediately?
Also, I haven't finished the manual yet but how would I go about changing the depth measurement from meters to feet?
Thank you.
