Remaining time span
(minutes / seconds)
The safety stop timer displays the time
span a diver should spend at the safety
stop depth at the end of the dive. The
timer starts automatically when depth is
shallower than 6.5
m and counts back
from 3 minutes (default) to zero. It can be
restarted manually any number of times.
The duration of the timer can be set
between 1 and 5 minutes.
The safety stop timer will be activated
under the following conditions: depth
<6.5 m (21ft), no-stop display 99 min, gauge
mode is switched off, stop time is selected
(1-5 min) at set 1 menu.
Activate the safety stop timer by pressing
. The timer begins to count backwards
and a bookmark will be created in the dive
profile. If you press again, the timer will start
again from the full value.
The safety stop timer will switch off
automatically if the depth exceeds 6.5 m
(21 ft) or the no-stop phase is shorter than
99 minutes.

After reaching the surface (<0.8m/3ft)
Aladin 2G remains in dive mode for 5
minutes. The delay allows for surfacing for
a short period for orientation.
After 5 minutes the dive is closed and it is
entered into the logbook. The time of day
is then displayed for 3 minutes, after which
the computer turns off.
WARNING
For the calculations of the desaturation
and no-fly time it is assumed that the diver
breathes air while on the surface.
3.5.2 Residual nitrogen bar graph
The segments in the residual nitrogen bar
graph will gradually turn off as Aladin 2G
follows the offgassing of your tissues
during your surface interval. There is a 1:1
equivalence in the meaning of the segments
between diving and surface. Thus, on a
repetitive dive the bar will resume from its
status on the surface just prior to the dive.
There are two exceptions however:
• the uppermost segment will stay lit until
the desaturation time is completely
extinguished. This is done to show
that there is desaturation time left and
that a dive started at this point will
be logged as a repetitive dive. If the
remaining desaturation time is very
short, this segment could however at
first disappear during the dive;
• during the 24 hours of an SOS-lock, all
segments will stay on.
