Breathing control is provided by the indication. You're breathing in too quickly if the indicator moves over the higher
arrow. You're inhaling too slowly if the signal remains below the bottom arrow. The indicator should be kept in between
the two arrows (in line with 1,500 cc). This implies that your breathing is even and under control.
