WARNING
ENRICHED AIR NITROX (EAN)
The Genesis Prana (GR910) & Prana Octo (GS010) are designed and manufactured for use
with clean air or Nitrox mixtures containing no more than 40% oxygen.
Preparation for use with oxygen enriched gas mixtures requires the proper selection of
compatible materials and clean manufacturing practices that minimize the presence
of combustible materials inside the regulator. Your Genesis regulator has been
manufactured observing these requirements.
Use of Enriched Air Nitrox (EAN) exposes the user to additional risks that
are not present when diving with standard air. Breathing EAN under pressure
beyond that taught in basic scuba training.
Failure to understand and avoid these risks may lead to serious personal
injury or death.
WWW.GENESISSCUBA.COM9
In order to maintain the necessary level of cleanliness Genesis recommends that the regulator
be dedicated to Nitrox use only.
However, if you wish to use the regulator with Nitrox and air interchangeably, you must exercise
care to pass only clean air through the regulator. The level of cleanliness must be such that
it contains condensed hydrocarbons of not more than 0.1 mg/ liter. If you are uncertain as to
whether the air you expect to use meets this cleanliness requirement it is recommended that
you avoid air use or have the regulator cleaned for EAN service before exposure to EAN.

INITIAL SET UP
Your Prana regulator provides options for the attachment of accessories such as the
and the alternate air source (Prana Octo).
Genesis recommends that you consult your Authorized Genesis Dealer to install these
accessories for you.
BEFORE THE DIVE
It is important to inspect the regulator before starting your dive trip and again just before you
enter the water. The pre-dive check should consist of at least the following steps.
1. Carefully inspect all hoses for signs of damage. This may require you to retract the
hose protectors at the ends of the hoses to examine the hose condition near the end
before you dive.
2. Visually inspect the entire regulator for signs of damage. If in doubt ask your
Authorized Genesis Dealer to assist you in performing this examination.
3. Connect the regulator to a pressurized cylinder and press the purge button several
minimal. If there is an unusual breathing resistance, have your regulator checked by a
professional instructor or by your Authorized Genesis Dealer before attempting to
enter the water.
