The O-ring on the Nemo Air quick connector can fail, causing the dive computer to start leaking breathing gas, which poses a drowning hazard to the user. According to Mares, "...this issue is covered by the EN250 norm, which requires a 0.3mm opening in the high- pressure hose fitting.

- 414159 - Nemo Air w/compass
- 44200771 - HP hose w/quick connector Nemo Air (spare part)
