+<div class="paragraph"><p>The <em>Subsurface</em> dive planner allows a sophisticated way of planning
+recreational dives, i.e. dives that remain within no-decompression limits.
+The dive planner automatically takes into account the nitrogen load incurred
+in previous dives. But conventional dive tables are also used in a way that
+can take into account previous dives. Why use a dive planner for
+recreational dives? Using recreational dive tables, the maximum depth of a
+dive is taken into acount. However, few dives are undertaken at a constant
+depth corresponding to the maximum depth (i.e. a "square" dive
+profile). This means that dive tables overestimate the nitrogen load
+incurred during previous dives. The <em>Subsurface</em> dive planner calculates
+nitrogen load according to the real dive profiles of all uploaded previous
+dives, in a similar way as dive computers calculate nitrogen load during a
+dive. This mean that the diver gets <em>credit</em> in terms of nitrogen loading
+for not remaining at maximum depth during previous dives, enabling planning
+a longer subsequent dive. For the planner to work it is therefore crucial to
+upload all previous dives onto <em>Subsurface</em> before performing dive planning.</p></div>
+<div class="paragraph"><p>To plan a dive, the appropriate settings need to be defined.</p></div>

+<p>
+The planner calculates whether the specified cylinder contains enough
+ air/gas to complete the planned dive. In order for this to be realistic,
+ under <em>Gas options</em>, specify an appropriate surface air consumption (SAC)
+ rate for <em>Bottom SAC</em>. Suitable values are between 15 l/min and 30 l/min,
