34  8  NAVIGATION 8.1 Using GPS Suunto Ambit3 Peak uses Global Positioning System (GPS) in determining your current position. GPS incorporates a set of satellites that orbit the Earth at an altitude of 20,000 km at the speed of 4 km/s. The built-in GPS receiver in Suunto Ambit3 Peak is optimized for wrist use and receives data from a very wide angle. 8.1.1 Getting GPS signal Suunto Ambit3 Peak activates GPS automatically when you select a sport mode with the GPS functionality, determine your location, or start navigating.
35  NOTE: When you activate GPS for the first time, or have not used it for a long time, it might take longer than usual to get a GPS fix. Subsequent GPS starts will take less time.  TIP: To minimize GPS initiation time, hold the watch steady with GPS facing up and make sure you are in an open area so that the watch has a clear view of the sky.  Troubleshooting: No GPS signal • For an optimal signal, point the GPS part of the watch upwards. The best signal can be received in an open area with a clear view of the sky. • The GPS receiver usually works well inside tents and other thin covers. However, objects, buildings, dense vegetation or cloudy weather can reduce the GPS signal reception quality. • GPS signal does not penetrate any solid constructions or water. Therefore do not try to activate GPS for example inside buildings, caves, or under water. 8.1.2 GPS grids and position formats Grids are lines on a map that define the coordinate system used on the map. Position format is the way the GPS receiver's position is displayed on the watch. All the formats relate to the same location, they only express it in a different way. You can change the position format in the watch settings under GENERAL / Format / Position format.
36  You can select the format from the following grids: • latitude/longitude is the most commonly used grid and has three different formats: o WGS84 Hd.d° o WGS84 Hd°m.m' o WGS84 Hd°m's.s • 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. Suunto Ambit3 Peak also supports the following local grids: • British (BNG) • Finnish (ETRS-TM35FIN) • Finnish (KKJ) • Irish (IG) • Swedish (RT90) • Swiss (CH1903) • UTM NAD27 Alaska • UTM NAD27 Conus • UTM NAD83 • New Zealand (NZTM2000)  NOTE: Some grids cannot be used in the areas north of 84°N and south of 80°S, or outside the countries that they are intended for.
37  8.1.3 GPS accuracy and power saving When customizing sport modes, you can define the GPS fix interval using the GPS accuracy setting in Movescount. The shorter the interval, the better the accuracy during exercise. By increasing the interval and lowering the accuracy, you can extend the battery life. The GPS accuracy options are: • Best: ~ 1 sec fix interval, highest power consumption • Good: ~ 5 sec fix interval, moderate power consumption • OK: ~ 60 sec fix interval, lowest power consumption • Off: no GPS fix 8.2 Checking your location Suunto Ambit3 Peak allows you to check the coordinates of your current location using GPS. 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. Press [Next] to select Location. 4.

54  9  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 9.4.1 Setting profiles. You can access different views depending on which profile is activated when you are in ALTI & BARO mode. Sunrise and sunset time views are available when GPS has been activated. If GPS is not active, sunrise and sunset times are based on the last recorded GPS data. 9.1 How Alti & Baro works To get correct readings with ALTI & BARO mode, it is important to understand how Suunto Ambit3 Peak calculates altitude and sea level air pressure. Suunto Ambit3 Peak 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.
55     9.2 Getting correct readings If you are engaged in an outdoor activity that requires accurate sea level air pressure or altitude, you will first need to calibrate your Suunto Ambit3 Peak by entering either your current altitude or the current sea level air pressure. The altitude of your location can be found from most topographic maps or Google Earth. A sea level air pressure reference for your location can be found using the websites of national weather services. If FusedAltiTM is activated, the altitude reading will be corrected automatically using FusedAlti together with altitude and sea level pressure calibration. For more information, see 9.8 FusedAlti. Absolute air pressure is measured constantly Absolute air pressure and known altitude reference = Sea level air pressure
56  Absolute air pressure and known sea level air pressure = 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. As long as the local weather stays stable, you do not need to set reference values. 9.3 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.
57  Use example: Setting the altitude reference value You’re 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 Ambit3 Peak 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 Ambit3 Peak altitude reference value accordingly and switch from Barometer to Altimeter profile. Your altitude readings are correct again. 9.4 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, sailing, canoeing). To get correct readings, you need to match the profile to your activity. You can either let Suunto Ambit3 Peak decide a suitable profile for the activity, or choose a profile yourself.  NOTE: You can define the profile as part of the sport mode settings in Movescount, or in your Suunto Ambit3 Peak .  9.4.1 Setting profiles To set the ALTI & BARO profile:
58  1. Keep [Next] pressed to enter the options menu. 2. Scroll to ALTI-BARO with [Light Lock] and enter with [Next]. 3. Press [Next] to select Profile. 4. Scroll the profile options (Automatic, Altimeter, Barometer) with [Start Stop] or [Light Lock]. Select a profile with [Next].    9.4.2 Setting reference values To set the sea level pressure and altitude reference values: 1. Keep [Next] pressed to enter the options menu. 2. Scroll to ALTI-BARO with [Light Lock] and enter with [Next]. 3. Scroll to Reference with [Light Lock] and enter with [Next]. 4. The following setting options are available: • FusedAlti: GPS is switched on and the device starts calculating altitude based on FusedAlti. For more information, see 9.8 FusedAlti. • Manual altitude: Set your altitude manually. • Sea level pressure: Set the sea level pressure reference value manually. 5.  Set the reference value using [Start Stop] and [Light Lock].
59  Accept the setting with [Next].   TIP: You can access the Reference setting by keeping [View] pressed when in ALTI & BARO mode.  You can also set your altitude during your exercise, see 11.6.4 Setting altitude during exercise. 9.5 Using Altimeter profile The Altimeter profile calculates altitude based on reference values. The reference value can either be sea level air pressure value or altitude reference value. When the Altimeter profile is activated,
60  the altimeter icon is shown on the display. For information on setting the profile, see 9.4.1 Setting profiles. When the Altimeter profile is activated, you can access the following views: • top row: your current altitude • middle row: altitude information on a 12-hour timeline in graph form • bottom row: toggle between time and temperature with [View]     NOTE: If you are wearing your Suunto Ambit3 Peak on your wrist, you will need to take it off in order to get an accurate temperature reading because your body temperature will affect the initial reading.  9.6 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 9.4.2 Setting reference values. Changes in the sea level air pressure are presented graphically in the middle row of the display. The display shows the recording of the last 26 hours with a recording interval of 15 minutes.
61  When the Barometer profile is activated, the barometer icon is shown on the display. For information on setting the ALTI & BARO profile, see 9.4.1 Setting profiles. When the Barometer profile is activated, Suunto Ambit3 Peak shows you the following barometric information: • top row: the current sea level air pressure • middle row: a graph displaying sea level pressure data from the past 27 hours (1h recording interval) • bottom row: toggle between temperature, time and altitude reference value with [View]    Altitude reference is the latest altitude used in ALTI & BARO mode. It can be: • the altitude you have set as altitude reference in the Barometer profile, or • the latest altitude logged in the Automatic profile before changing to the Barometer profile.
62  NOTE: If you are wearing your Suunto Ambit3 Peak on your wrist, you will need to take it off in order to get an accurate temperature reading because your body temperature will affect the initial reading.  9.7  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.   It is not possible to measure weather and altitude changes at the same time, as both cause a change in the surrounding air pressure. Suunto Ambit3 Peak senses vertical movement and switches to measuring altitude, when needed. When altitude is shown, it is updated with a maximum delay of 10 seconds. If you are at a constant altitude (less than 5 meters of vertical movement within 12 minutes), Suunto Ambit3 Peak interprets all pressure changes as weather changes. The measurement interval is 10 seconds. The altitude reading remains steady and if the weather changes, you will see changes in the sea level air pressure reading.
63  If you are moving in altitude (more than 5 meters of vertical movement within 3 minutes), Suunto Ambit3 Peak interprets all pressure changes as movements in altitude. Depending on which profile is active, you can access the Altimeter or Barometer profile views with [View].  NOTE: When you are using the Automatic profile, barometer or altimeter icons are not shown on the display.  9.8 FusedAlti FusedAltiTM provides  an  altitude  reading  that  is  a  combination  of GPS and barometric altitude. It minimizes the effect of temporary and offset errors in the final altitude reading.  NOTE: By default, altitude is measured with FusedAlti during exercises that use GPS and during navigation. When GPS is switched off, altitude is measured with the barometric sensor.  If you do not want to use FusedAlti in altitude measurement, you can disable it in the options menu. To disable FusedAlti: 1. Keep [Next] pressed to access the options menu. 2. Scroll to ALTI-BARO with [Light Lock] and enter with [Next].
64  3. Scroll to FusedAlti with [Start Stop] and select with [Next]. 4. Set FusedAlti Off with [Start Stop] or [Light Lock] and accept with [Next].    When the device is in TIME mode, you can search a new reference for barometric  altitude  with  FusedAlti.  This  activates  the  GPS  for  a maximum of 15 minutes. To search a new reference for barometric altitude with FusedAlti: 1. Keep [Next] pressed to enter the options menu. 2. Scroll to ALTI-BARO with [Light Lock] and enter with [Next].
65  3. Scroll to Reference with [Light Lock] and enter with [Next]. 4. Scroll to FusedAlti with [Start Stop] and select with [Next]. GPS is switched on and the device starts calculating altitude based on FusedAlti.   NOTE: In good conditions it takes 4 – 12 minutes for the FusedAlti to activate. During that time, Suunto Ambit3 Peak shows barometric altitude and ~ is shown with the altitude reading to indicate that the altitude may not be correct.
66  9.9  Weather indicators In addition to the barometer graph (see 9.6 Using Barometer profile), Suunto Ambit3 Peak has two weather indicators: weather trend and storm alarm. The weather trend indicator is displayed as a view in TIME mode, providing you a quick way to check weather changes.  The weather trend indicator is comprised of two lines forming an arrow. Each line represents a 3-hour period. A change in barometric pressure greater than 2 hPa / 0.59 inHg over three hours triggers a change the direction of the arrow. For example:  pressure dropping heavily over the last six hours pressure was steady, but rising heavily over the last three hours pressure was rising heavily, but dropping heavily over the last three hours   Storm alarm
67  A significant drop in barometric pressure typically means a storm is coming and you should take cover. When the storm alarm is active, Suunto Ambit3 Peak sounds an alarm and flashes a storm symbol when the pressure drops 4 hPa / 0.12 inHg or more during a 3-hour period.  NOTE: The storm alarm does not work if you have altimeter profile activated. See 9.4.1 Setting profiles.  To activate Storm alarm: 1. Keep [Next] pressed to enter the options menu. 2. Scroll to ALTI-BARO with [Light Lock] and enter with [Next]. 3. Press [Next] to select Storm alarm. 4. Set the storm alarm On or Off with with [Start Stop] or [Light Lock] and accept with [Next].
68   When a storm alarm occurs, pressing any button ends the alarm. If no button is pressed, the alarm repeats once after five minutes. The storm symbol remains on the display until the weather conditions stabilize (pressure drop slows down). A special lap (called 'storm alarm') is generated when a storm alarm occurs while recording an exercise.  TIP: You can also activate or deactivate the storm alarm through the options menu in a sport mode.
69  10  USING 3D COMPASS Suunto Ambit3 Peak has a 3D compass that allows you to orient yourself in relation to magnetic north. The tilt-compensated compass gives you accurate readings even if the compass is not horizontally level. COMPASS mode includes the following information: • middle row: compass heading in degrees • bottom row: toggle between the current heading in cardinal (N, S, W, E) and half-cardinal (NE, NW, SE, SW) points, time and empty view with [View]    The compass will switch itself to power saving mode after one minute. Reactivate it with [Start Stop]. For information on using compass during exercise, see 11.6.5 Using compass during exercise. 10.1 Calibrating compass COMPASS mode asks you to calibrate the compass before you start using it. If you have already calibrated the compass and want to re- calibrate it, you can access the calibration option in the options menu.
70  To calibrate the compass: 1. Keep [Next] pressed to enter the options menu. 2. Scroll to GENERAL using [Light Lock] and enter with [Next]. 3. Scroll to Compass using [Start Stop] or [Light Lock] and enter with [Next]. 4. Press [Next] to select Calibration. 5. Turn and tilt the watch in multiple directions until the watch beeps, indicated calibration is complete.    If the calibration is successful, the text CALIBRATION SUCCESSFUL is displayed. If the calibration does not succeed, the text CALIBRATION FAILED is displayed. To retry the calibration, press [Start Stop].
71  10.2 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 Earth’s 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 www.magnetic-declination.com). 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 options menu. 2. Press [Next] to enter GENERAL. 3. Scroll to Compass using [Light Lock] and select with [Next]. 4. Scroll to Declination with [Light Lock] and select with [Next]. 5. Turn the declination off by selecting --, or select W (west) or E (east). 6. Set the declination value with [Start Stop] or [Light Lock]. 7. Press [Next] to accept the setting.
72    TIP: You can also enter the compass settings by keeping [View] pressed in COMPASS mode.  10.3 Setting bearing lock You can mark the direction to your target in relation to North with the bearing lock feature.

Adjust the distance shown on the display to the actual distance you ran with [Start Stop] and [Light Lock]. Confirm with [Next]. 7. Confirm the POD calibration by pressing [Start Stop]. Your foot POD has now been calibrated. NOTE: If the foot POD connection was unstable during the calibration exercise, you might not be able to adjust the distance in the distance summary. Make sure that foot POD is attached properly according to instructions and try again.  If you are running without a foot POD, you can still get running cadence
126  from the your wrist. Running cadence measured from wrist is used together with FusedSpeed and is always on for specific sport modes including running, trail running, treadmill, orienteering, and track and field. If a foot POD is found at start of an exercise, running cadence measured from wrist is overwritten by foot POD cadence. 16.2 Calibrating power PODs and slope Suunto Ambit3 Peak automatically calibrates your power POD when it finds the POD. You can also calibrate the power POD manually at any time during an exercise. To manually calibrate a power POD: 1. While you are in a sport mode, keep [Next] pressed to access the options menu. 2.
