If you do a search on here, you'll find its a fairly well known issue..

You're actually doing alright if yours clears in only 4 to 5 minutes!

As you've already been advised, it has been discussed on these pages before, so nothing new there.

Personally, I was taught that, if I've been at the 10' stop for a reasonable period of time and the display still reflects 1 minute, then just SLOWLY ascend and it will clear.

However, if you're looking for a more technical explaination of why the HH does that, then search through the older threads of this topic and you'll find your answer.
