1. GENERAL INFORMATION Suunto t6 is your personal tool for better performance in sports. It measures the time between your heartbeats with the accuracy of milliseconds and records it for deeper analysis. The Suunto Training Manager PC software uses the heart rate variation data to analyze the effect of your training and to calculate several other body parameters. Relating this information with your current fitness level, the software also indicates the scale of training load that you need for different training effects. For the first time, in field conditions Suunto t6 tells you whether your training really improves your condition and helps you adjust your training programs accordingly. When you set the target effect for your training, you can use the software to calculate the time and heart rate to reach it. During a training session, Suunto t6 helps you reach the target by offering several control functions such as heart rate limits, real time average heart rate, and a customizable display of stopwatch, lap time, interval timer and altitude. Together with versatile timing, altimeter and logbook functions this makes Suunto t6 a perfect performance monitor for all kinds of sports at all performance levels. Suunto t6 can be upgraded with different wireless accessories such as speed and distance sensors for running and cycling. NOTE: Read this Instruction manual carefully and make sure you understand the use, displays and limitations of this instrument before using the device. Also read the guidebook ‘How not to rely on luck when optimizing the training effect’ to learn how to get the best benefits out of using the Suunto t6. You find the guidebook on the CD delivered with the Suunto t6. 1.1.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE Only perform the procedures described in this manual. Never attempt to disassemble or service your Suunto t6. Protect your Suunto t6 from shocks, extreme heat and prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. If not in use, store your Suunto t6 in a clean and dry environment at room temperature. Your Suunto t6 can be wiped clean with a lightly moistened (warm water) cloth. If there are stubborn stains or marks, you can apply mild soap to the area. Do not expose your Suunto t6 to strong chemicals such as gasoline, cleaning solvents, acetone, alcohol, insect repellents, adhesives and paint, as they will damage the unit’s seals, case and finish. Keep the area around the sensor free of dirt and sand. Never insert any objects into the sensor opening. 1.4. WATER RESISTANCE Your Suunto t6 is water resistant up to 100 m/330 ft. and the transmitter belt to 20m/ 66ft. according to ISO 2281 standard (www.iso.ch). This means that you can use Suunto t6 for swimming and other water sports activities but it should not be used for scuba diving or freediving. To maintain water resistance and to ensure that the warranty remains valid, it is strongly recommended to have all service, except for battery change, to be done by authorized Suunto service personnel. NOTE: Do not push the buttons while swimming or in contact with water under any circumstances. Deliberate or unintentional pressing of the buttons while the unit is submerged could cause the unit to malfunction. NOTE: Despite the fact that both the Suunto t6 and the transmitter belt are water resistant, the radio signal does not carry in water making communication between Suunto t6 and the transmitter belt impossible. 1.5. REPLACING THE BATTERY Your Suunto t6 operates on a 3-Volt lithium cell, type: CR 2032. The life expectancy is approximately 12 months in the Time mode or 300 hours of heart rate transmission in ideal operating temperatures. The low-battery warning indicator is activated on the display when approximately 5–15 percent of the battery capacity is still available. When this occurs, you should replace the battery. However, extremely cold weather may activate the low battery warning indicator, even though the battery is still fully operational. If the battery warning indicator is activated in temperatures above 10°C (50°F), replace the battery. NOTE: When the low-battery indicator is on, the HR transmission becomes automatically disabled. To replace the battery: 1. Insert a coin into the slot located on the battery compartment cover on the backside of Suunto t6. 2. Turn the coin counterclockwise until it is aligned with the open position marker. 3. Remove the battery compartment cover. Ensure that the O ring and all surfaces are clean and dry. Do not stretch the O ring. 4. Remove the old battery carefully. 5. Place the new battery into the battery compartment with the positive side facing up. Make sure to gently slide the battery underneath the contact plate on the side, ensuring that it does not break or bend out of place. 6. With the O ring in the correct position, replace the battery compartment cover and turn it with the coin clockwise until it is aligned with the close position marker. NOTE: Replace the battery with extreme care to ensure that your Suunto t6 remains water resistant. Careless battery replacement may void warranty. NOTE: Heavy use of the backlight, especially in the Night Use setting, will significantly reduce battery life. 1.6. REPLACING THE BATTERY OF THE TRANSMITTER BELT The transmitter belt operates on a 3-Volt lithium cell, type: CR 2032. The average expected battery life of the transmitter belt is 300 hours of use in ideal operating temperatures. When your Suunto t6 is not receiving a signal, when the transmitter belt is active, you might need to replace the battery. NOTE: When the low-battery indicator is on, the HR transmission becomes automatically disabled. To replace the battery: 1. Insert a coin into the slot located on the battery compartment cover on the backside of the transmitter belt. 2. Turn the coin counterclockwise until it is aligned with the open position marker, or even slightly further for easy opening. 3. Remove the battery compartment cover. Ensure that the O ring and all surfaces are clean and dry. Do not stretch the O ring. 4. Carefully remove the old battery. 5. Place the new battery into the battery compartment with the positive side facing up. NOTE: Suunto recommends that the battery cover and the O ring are changed simultaneously with the battery to ensure that the transmitter remains clean and water resistant. Replacement covers are available with replacement batteries. NOTE: Battery covers of the transmitter belt and the wristop computer are not interchangeable. 10 1.7. HEART RATE TRANSMITTER BELT 1.7.1.

ALTI/BARO MODE The Alti/Baro mode has two alternative displays: Altitude and related parameters in Alti Use and weather data such as barometric pressure and temperature in Baro use. With the Use selection you can select whether you use this mode as an altimeter or as a weather station. The Alti/Baro mode also contains the weather memory and the reference setting needed to relate the current weather state to your current altitude. 3.3.1. Use (Alti/Baro) With this function you can set Suunto t6 to display either barometric or altitude-related information. It also defines whether the Training logbook records altitude profile or not. When the Alti use is active, Suunto t6 assumes that all the barometric pressure changes are due to altitude changes. The logbook in the Training mode records altitude data. Alti is intended for measuring the altitude whenever you are on the move. However, since substantial barometric pressure changes can take place during a day, you should compare the changes reported by Suunto t6 to well-known references. If these differ from each other too much, the reason is the weather change and you should set a new reference value as advised in section 3.3.4. Reference altitude and barometric pressure. A general rule is that a 10 m change in altitude equals 1,2 hPa in the barometric pressure at sea level and 0,5 hPa at 8000 m. When the Baro use is active, Suunto t6 assumes that all the barometric pressure changes are due to weather changes. The training logbook does not record altitude data. Baro use is practical for following and predicting weather trends when staying in a constant altitude. 29 To change the Use setting: 1. In the Alti/Baro menu, scroll to Use and press ENTER. 2. Select alti or baro with UP/DOWN and press ENTER. 3.3.2. Alti use When you select Alti, the following main display opens. It has three rows: Vertical speed: The first row displays the vertical speed i.e. how fast you are currently moving up or down in a straight vertical direction, in the unit of your choice. For more information on setting the vertical speed unit, see section 3.2.5. Units. Altitude: The second row displays your altitude from the sea level. Shortcuts: The third row displays alternatively the ascent, descent or time. Change the displayed information with ALT/BACK. • Ascent: Displays the total ascent i.e. vertical movement upwards during an active log in the unit of your choice. • Descent: Displays the total descent i.e. vertical movement downwards during an active log in the unit of your choice. • Time: Displays the current time 30 3.3.3. Baro use When you select Baro, the following main display opens. It has three rows: Temperature: The first row displays the temperature in the unit of your choice. Sea level barometric pressure: The second row displays the barometric pressure at sea level in the unit of your choice. Shortcuts: The third row displays alternatively the absolute barometric pressure, the barometric pressure graph, or time. Change the displayed information with ALT/BACK. • Absolute barometric pressure (abs): Displays the actual pressure in your current location • Barometric pressure graph: Displays a graphical presentation of the barometric pressure development during the last 6 hours in 15-minute intervals. • Time: Displays the current time. NOTE: If you are wearing your Suunto t6 on your wrist, the outdoor temperature is not measured correctly. This is because the sensor is in direct contact with your skin. You have to keep your Suunto t6 away from the body’s temperature for at least 15 minutes before the outdoor temperature measurement is accurate. When you measure the water temperature, less time away from the body is required. 31 3.3.4. Reference altitude and barometric pressure To ensure that the altimeter shows correct readings, you first need to set an accurate reference altitude. To do this, go to a location whose altitude you have checked, for example, with the help of a topographical map, and set the reference altitude to match the map reading. If you do not have accurate altitude information, you can use the current sea-level barometric pressure as the reference value. Suunto t6 has a factory-set reference altitude that corresponds to the standard barometric pressure (1013 hPa/29.90inHg at sea level). Setting the reference altitude To set the reference altitude: 1.In the Alti/Baro menu, scroll to Refer and press ENTER. 2.Altitude is the first menu item. Press ENTER to select it. 3.Change the altitude with UP/DOWN and press ENTER. 32 Setting the sea level barometric pressure To set the sea level barometric pressure: 1. In the Alti/Baro menu scroll to Refer and press ENTER. 2. Select Sea level with UP/DOWN and press ENTER. 3. Change the pressure with UP/DOWN and press ENTER. The sea level barometric pressure is now set and you return to the Reference menu. 33 3.3.5. Memory With this function you can view weather information regarding the last 48 hours. The following information is displayed: • Maximum sea level air pressure, time and weekday. • Minimum sea level air pressure, time and weekday. • Maximum temperature, time and weekday. • Minimum temperature, time and weekday. • Sea level air pressure and temperature in relation to time in 1-hour intervals for the last 6 hours, then in 3-hour intervals. NOTE: If the Use function has been set to Alti, the barometric value in the memory is always the same. To view the weather information: 1.In the Alti/Baro menu scroll to Memory and press ENTER. 2.Scroll the information with the UP and DOWN buttons. 3.Press ENTER to stop viewing the information. 34 3.4.
