7 NAVIGATION
7.1 Using GPS
Suunto Ambit uses Global Positioning System (GPS) in determining your current
position. GPS incorporates a set of satellites that orbit the Earth at the altitude
of 20,000 km at the speed of 4 km/s.
The built-in GPS receiver in Suunto Ambit is extremely sensitive and can pick
up even the faintest signals. It is optimized for a wrist unit use and receives
data from a very wide angle.
7.1.1 Getting GPS signal
Suunto Ambit activates the GPS automatically when you select an exercise
mode, determine your location, or start navigating to a waypoint.
NOTE: When you activate the GPS for the first time, it will take longer than
usual since the GPS has no reference to its current location. This may also happen
if the GPS has not been used for a long time. Subsequent GPS starts will take less
time.
TIP: To minimize the GPS initiation time, hold the unit steady in one position
with the display facing up and make sure you are located in an open area so that
the unit has a clear view to the sky.
18
Troubleshooting: No GPS signal
For an optimal signal, point the upper part of the device upwards. The best
signal can be received in an open area with a clear view to the sky.
The GPS receiver usually works well inside tents and other thin covers.
However, objects, buildings, dense vegetation or cloydy weather can cause
problems to the GPS signal reception.
GPS signal does not penetrate any solid constructions or water. Therefore
do not try to activate the GPS for example inside buildings, caves or under
water.
To recover from GPS failures, put the device into sleep mode (see Section
11.1 Sleep mode on page 45). When the device is in the sleep mode, wait
for 5 minutes and then wake up the device by pressing any button. This
restarts the GPS and clears all GPS data.
CAUTION: Do not use the GPS RESET function, as it will make the device
inoperable.
7.1.2 GPS datum and location formats
Location format is the way the GPS receiver's position is displayed on the device.
All the formats relate to the same location, they only express it in a different
way. To help you decide which format to use, check your map datum and use
the same location format.
You can select from the following location formats:
latitude/longitude (WGS84) is the most commonly used coordinate format
and consists of degrees that can be further broken into minutes and
seconds:
Hddd.ddddd°: degrees and decimal degrees
19
en
Hddd°mm.mmm: degrees, minutes and decimal minutes
Hddd°mmss.s: degrees, minutes, seconds and decimal seconds
UTM (Universal Transverse Mercator) gives a two-dimensional horizontal
position presentation.
MGRS (Military Grid Reference System) is an extension of UTM and consists
of a grid zone designator, 100,000-meter square identifier and a numerical
location.
7.1.3 FusedSpeed
FusedSpeed is a unique combination of GPS and wrist acceleration sensor
readings for measuring your running speed more accurately. The GPS signal
is adaptively filtered based on wrist acceleration, giving more accurate readings
at steady running speeds and a quicker response to changes in speed. Fused
speed is suitable for measuring running and walking speed.
FusedSpeed will benefit you the most, when you need highly reactive speed
readings during training, for example, when running on uneven terrain or
during interval training. If you temporarily lose the GPS signal, for example,
due to buildings blocking the signal, Suunto Ambit is able to continue showing
accurate speed with the help of the GPS calibrated accelometer.
NOTE: Fused speed is meant for exercises that mainly contain walking or
running.
FusedSpeed is used as default in the following exercise modes:
trail running
triathlon
running
20
soccer
orienteering
multisport
floorball
football
The rest of the exercise modes use the basic GPS speed.
NOTE: When you change from running to biking, the FusedSpeed system
notices that the wrist acceleration is not giving valid speed readings. The device
deactivates FusedSpeed and only uses the GPS speed in biking. When you change
to running after biking, the system notices it and activates FusedSpeed again.
7.2 Checking your location
Suunto Ambit shows your current location in multiple coordinate systems,
including military grids (see Section 7.1.2 GPS datum and location
formats on page 19). For information on changing the coordinate format, see
Chapter 11 Adjusting settings on page 43.
To check your location:
1. Press [Start Stop] to enter the start menu.
2. Scroll to NAVIGATION using [Start Stop] and enter with [Next].
3. Enter Location with [Next].
4. The device starts searching for a GPS signal and shows the message GPS
found on the display, once the signal has been found. After that your current
coordinates are shown on the display.
21
en
7.3 Adding waypoints
You can save your location as a waypoint. Suunto Ambit allows you to store
up to 100 waypoints. You can select the waypoint type from a pre-defined list,
or create new waypoint names in Movescount. The pre-defined icons are listed
in Chapter 13 Icons on page 49.
To save a location as a waypoint:
1. Press [Start Stop] to enter the start menu.
2. Scroll to NAVIGATION using [Start Stop] and enter with [Next].
3. Enter Location with [Next].
4. The device starts searching for a GPS signal and shows the message GPS

22
2. Scroll to NAVIGATION using [Start Stop] and enter with [Next].
3. Scroll to Waypoints with [Light Lock] and enter with [Next]. The number
of saved waypoints and free space available for new waypoints is shown
on the display.
4. Scroll to the waypoint to which you want to navigate with [Start Stop] or
[Light Lock] and select with [Next].
5. Select Navigate with [Next]. The device starts searching for a GPS signal
and shows the message GPS found on the display, once the signal has
been found.
6. Start navigating to the waypoint. Suunto Ambit shows you the following
information:
arrow pointing to the the direction of your destination (turn left/right
indicator)
your distance from the destination
your deviation from the heading in degrees (0° is the correct heading),
or alternatively your current heading in cardinal and half-cardinal points
7. About 50 meters before the waypoint location the device informs you that
you are arriving at your destination.

en
8 USING ALTI & BARO MODE
In ALTI & BARO mode you can view the current altitude or barometric pressure.
It offers three profiles: Automatic, Barometer and Altimeter. For information
on setting profiles, see Section 8.2.1 Setting profiles on page 26.
You can access different views depending on which profile is activated when
you are in the ALTI & BARO mode.
8.1 How Alti & Baro works
To get correct readings with ALTI & BARO mode, it is important to understand
how Suunto Ambit calculates altitude and sea level air pressure. Suunto Ambit
constantly measures absolute air pressure. Based on this measurement and
reference values, it calculates altitude or sea level air pressure.
CAUTION: Keep the area around the sensor free of dirt and sand. Never insert
any objects into the sensor openings.
8.1.1 Getting correct readings
If you are engaged in an outdoor activity that requires you to know the air
pressure, you need to enter the altitude reference value for your location. This
is found on most topographic maps. Your Suunto Ambit will now give you the
correct readings.
To get the correct altitude readings, you need to enter the sea level air pressure
reference value. The sea level air pressure reference value relevant to your
location can be found in the weather section of the local newspaper or on the
websites of national weather services.
24
Absolute air pressure is measured constantly
Absolute air pressure + altitude reference = Sea level air pressure
Absolute air pressure + sea level air pressure reference = Altitude
Changes in local weather conditions will affect altitude readings. If local weather
changes often, it is advisable to reset the current altitude reference value
frequently, preferably before starting your journey when the reference values
are available. If local weather is stable, you do not need to set reference values.
8.1.2 Getting incorrect readings
ALTIMETER profile + standing still + weather change
If your Altimeter profile is on for an extended period of time with the device
in a fixed location while the local weather changes, the device will give incorrect
altitude readings.
ALTIMETER profile + altitude moving + weather change
If your Altimeter profile is on and the weather changes frequently while you
climb in altitude or go down in altitude, the device will give you incorrect
readings.
BAROMETER profile + altitude moving
If the Barometer profile is on for an extended period of time as you climb in
altitude or go down in altitude, the device assumes that you are standing still
and interprets your changes in altitude as changes in sea level air pressure. It
will therefore give you incorrect sea level air pressure readings.
25
en
Possible real life situation: Setting the altitude reference value
Youre on the second day of your two-day hike. You realize that you forgot to switch
from the Barometer profile to the Altimeter profile when you started moving in
the morning.You know that the current altitude readings given by your Suunto
Ambit are wrong. So, you hike to the nearest location shown on your topographic
map for which an altitude reference value is provided. You correct your Suunto
Ambit altitude reference value accordingly. Your altitude readings are correct
again.
8.2 Matching profile to activity
The Altimeter profile should be selected when your outdoor activity involves
changes in altitude (e.g. hiking in hilly terrain). The Barometer profile should
be selected when your outdoor activity does not involve changes in altitude
(e.g. soccer, floorball). To get correct readings, you need to match the profile
to your activity. You can either let Suunto Ambit decide a suitable profile for
the activity, or choose a profile yourself.
8.2.1 Setting profiles
To set the ALTI & BARO profile:
1. Keep [Next] pressed to enter the settings.
2. In the settings, scroll to ALTI-BARO using [Light Lock] and enter with [Next].
3. Select Profile with [Next].
4. Scroll the profile options (Automatic, Altimeter, Barometer) with [Start
Stop] and select a profile with [Next].
26
8.2.2 Setting reference values
To set the seal level pressure and altitude reference values:
1. Keep [Next] pressed to enter the settings.
2. In the settings, scroll to ALTI-BARO using [Light Lock] and enter with [Next].
3. Go to Altitude or Sea level with [Light Lock] and enter the setting with
[Next].
4. Set the known reference value using [Start Stop] and [Light Lock].
8.3 Using Altimeter profile
The Altimeter profile calculates altitude based on the reference values. The
reference value can either be sea level air pressure value or altitude reference
value. When the Altimeter profile is activated, the altimeter icon is shown on
the display. For information on setting the profile, see Section 8.2.1 Setting
profiles on page 26.
When the Altimeter profile is activated, you can access the following views
with [View]:
your current altitude
altitude information on a 12-hour timeline in graph form
current time, or alternatively the temperature
8.3.1 Recording altitude
The log recorder stores all your movements in altitude between the start and
stop times. If you are engaged in an activity in which your altitude changes,
you can record the altitude changes and view the stored information later. You
can also set altitude marks (laps), allowing you to view the duration and
27
en
ascent/descent height between your previous mark and current mark. Your
marks are stored in the device memory and you can access them later.
To record altitude:
1. Make sure that the Altimeter (or Automatic?) profile is activated.
2. Press [Start Stop] to enter the start menu.
3. Scroll to EXCERCISE with [Start Stop] or [Light Lock] and enter with [Next].
4. Scroll the exercise options with [Start Stop] or [Light Lock] and select a
suitable option with [Next].
5. Wait for the device to notify that the HR and/or GPS signal have been found
and press [Start Stop] to start recording the log.
To start recording the log without HR and/or GPS signal, press [Start Stop]
while the device is searching for the signal. Press [Start Stop] again to start
recording the log.
8.4 Using Barometer profile
The Barometer profile shows the current sea level air pressure. This is based
on the reference values added in the settings and the constantly measured
absolute air pressure. For information on setting the reference values, see
Section 8.2.2 Setting reference values on page 27.
Changes in the sea level air pressure are presented graphically in the middle
of the display. The display shows the recording of the last 27 hours with a
recording interval of 1 hour.
When the Barometer profile is activated, the barometer icon is shown on the
display. For information on setting the ALTI & BARO profile, see Section 8.2.1
Setting profiles on page 26.
28
When the Barometer profile has been activated, Suunto Ambit shows you the
following barometric information:
the current sea level air pressure
a graph showing the changes in the sea level pressure during the last 27 h
(1 h recording interval) in EXERCISE or TIME mode
the current temperature, or alternatively the altitude reference value
8.5 Using Automatic profile
The Automatic profile switches between the Altimeter and Barometer profiles
according to your movements. When the Automatic profile is active, the device
will automatically switch between interpreting changes in air pressure as
changes in altitude or changes in weather.
Depending on which profile is active, you can access the Altimeter or
Barometer profile views with [View].
29
en
9 USING COMPASS
Suunto Ambit includes a compass that allows you to orient yourself in relation
to the magnetic North. The tilt-compensated compass gives you accurate
readings even if the compass is tilted.
COMPASS mode includes the following information:
icon indicator showing the bearing?
compass heading in degrees
alternatively the current heading in cardinal and half-cardinal points, or
the current time
The compass will switch itself to power saving mode after a minute. Reactivate
it with [Start Stop].
9.1 Calibrating compass
You can start the compass calibration in COMPASS mode, if the compass has
not been calibrated. If you have already calibrated the compass and want to
re-calibrate it, you can start the calibration in the settings.
NOTE: The compass calibration includes two sequences. The sequences follow
each other automatically, so read all the instructions before starting the calibration.
To access the compass calibration settings:
1. Keep [Next] pressed to enter the settings.
2. In the settings, go to GENERAL using [Light Lock] and enter with [Next].
3. Go to Compass using [Start Stop] or [Light Lock] and enter with [Next].
4. Press [Next] to select Calibration.
30
To calibrate the compass:
1. Keep the device level and rotate the compass until the outer rim segments
of the display are filled and you hear a sound confirming the calibration
was successful. The text Level is blinking on the display when the device
is not leveled.
2. The tilt calibration starts automatically after a successful level calibration.
Keep the device tilted 90º until you hear the confirmation sound. The text
Calibration successful is shown on the display.
If the calibration does not succeed, the text Calibration failed is shown on
the display. To retry the calibration, press [Start Stop].
TIP: To ensure that the device is level, place it on a table, or against a wall to
ensure it is tilted 90º.
9.2 Setting declination value
To ensure correct compass readings, set an accurate declination value.
Paper maps point to true North. Compasses, however, point to magnetic North
a region above the Earth where the Earths magnetic fields pull. Because
magnetic North and true North are not at the same location, you must set the
declination on your compass. The angle in between magnetic and true north
is your declination.
The declination value appears on most maps. The location of magnetic North
changes yearly, so the most accurate and up-to-date declination value can be
obtained from the internet (for example the National Geophysical Data Center
for the USA).
31
en
Orienteering maps, however, are drawn in relation to magnetic North. This
means that when you are using orienteering maps you need to turn the
declination correction off by setting the declination value to 0 degrees.
To set the declination value:
1. Keep [Next] pressed to enter the settings.

10.5 Setting exercise parameters
Setting HR limits
Go to Movescount to specify your upper and lower HR limits. Transfer the
settings to your device.
Peak Training Effect
Peak Training Effect is a parameter that indicates the impact of an exercise on
your maximal aerobic performance (VO2max).
Go to Movescount to select it to be displayed during your exercise. After you
have selected Peak Training Effect to be displayed, you can see the estimated
effect of the session on your peak performance on a scale of 1 to 5, from minor
to overreaching, during exercise.
NOTE: Peak Training Effect works best in medium to high intensity training at
a constant intensity level. It is not ideal for quantifying low intensity workouts. Base
37
en
endurance training, regardless of how long and tiring the session is, will have a
low Peak Training Effect.
EPOC
EPOC (Excess Post-exercise Oxygen Consumption) indicates the amount of
extra oxygen that your body needs to recover after exercise. Your body
consumes more oxygen after exercise than during rest. The higher the EPOC,
the more strenuous the exercise. EPOC is most useful in measuring the exercise
load in endurance sports, such as running and cycling.

14 TERMINOLOGY
With AUTOLAP, you can define laps in distance instead of time
(interval training).
Autolap
A datum is a mathematically defined reference surface that
approximates the shape of the earth, and enables calculations
such as position and area to be carried out in a consistent and
accurate manner. Every map has a datum or metric grid. You
have to set your Suunto Ambit to the correct datum/grid for
it to function properly with the map.
Datum
The way in which the GPS receiver's position will be displayed
on the wrist unit. Commonly displayed as latitude/longitude
in degrees and minutes, with options for degrees, minutes and
seconds, degrees only, or one of several grid formats.
Format
FusedSpeed is a unique combination of GPS and acceleration
sensor readings for more accurate running speed. The GPS
signal is adaptively filtered based on acceleration, giving a
more accurate reading at steady running speeds and a quicker
response to changes in speed. FusedSpeed is meant for running
and walking, not for other types of sports.
FusedSpeed
A grid system is a set of lines that cross each other at right
angles on a map. Grid systems allow you to locate or report
on a specific point on the map.
Grid
Interval timer enables you to set and follow different timed
intervals.
