LIMITED TWO-YEAR WARRANTY

Oceanic guarantees, to the original purchaser only, that the DataMax Sport will be free of defects in materials and/or craftsmanship under normal scuba use for two years from date of

purchase, provided proper care and annual service are performed as described beginning on page 39 of this owner’s guide.  Should your DataMax Sport prove to be defective for any
reason (other than those listed in the limitations section below) it will be repaired or replaced (at Oceanic’s discretion) free of charge excluding shipping and handling charges.  This
warranty shall be considered void if the registration card is not filled out completely and mailed to Oceanic within 30 days of purchase, and/or if the annual inspection is not done
according to this owner’s guide.  This warranty is non-transferrable and applies to the original purchaser only.  All correspondence concerning this warranty must be accompa-
nied by a copy of the original sales receipt and a copy of the owner’s portion of the warranty registration card including the annual inspection record.

Maintaining warranty with annual Dealer Inspections

Once each year you must return the DataMax Sport to an Authorized Oceanic Dealer within 30 days of the original purchase date anniversary to keep the two

year limited warranty in force.  Annual inspection includes verification of depth accuracy and proper general function.  Labor charges for the annual inspection are not covered by the
warranty.  You must provide a copy of the original sales receipt and a copy of the owner’s portion of the warranty registration card including the annual service record to obtain warranty
service.  If you try to obtain warranty service for your DataMax Sport but have not sent in the registration within 30 days of purchase date, you will be charged a twenty-five dollar late
registration processing fee to reinstate the warranty.  This charge can be avoided by mailing the registration card immediately after purchase.

STATEMENT OF LIMITATIONS
General

Warranty does not cover damage from accident, abuse, battery leakage, tampering, lack of proper care and maintenance and/or proper annual servicing.  Modifications or repair by

anyone other than an Oceanic Sales & Service Center authorized to service the DataMax Sport will void the warranty.  Oceanic will not be responsible for recovery or replacement of the
product in the event of loss or theft.  Oceanic, its distributors, and retailers make no warranties, either expressed or implied, with respect to this product or its owner’s guide except those
stated in the preceding paragraphs.  By purchasing this product you agree and understand that in no event will Oceanic, its distributors or retailers, be held liable for any personal
injuries resulting from its operation, or for any other damages whether direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential even if Oceanic is advised of such damages.

Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of implied warranties or liabilities for incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation may not apply to you.

Instrument

Warranty does not extend to plastic gauge face, rubber boot, high pressure hose, air spool and hose-end o-rings, batteries, hose fitting corrosion, chrome loss, or

damage due to accident, abuse, modification, or tampering.

DECOMPRESSION MODEL

The programs within the DataMax Sport simulate the absorption of nitrogen into the body by using a mathematical model.  This model is not magic, merely a way to apply a limited

set of data to a large range of experiences.  The DataMax Sport dive computer model is based upon the latest research and experiments in decompression theory.  Still, using the DataMax
Sport, just as using the U.S. Navy (or other) No-decompression Tables, is no guarantee of avoiding decompression sickness, i.e. “the bends.”  Every diver’s physiology is
different, it even varies from day to day.  No machine can predict how your body will react to a particular dive profile.

The DataMax Sport is intended for use by divers who have successfully completed a nationally recognized course in scuba diving.  It must not be used by untrained persons who may

not have knowledge of the potential risks and hazards of scuba diving.  You must obtain proper training before using the DataMax Sport if you have not already done so.  You also must
read this owner’s guide completely before diving with the DataMax Sport.
