2.2. Optical heart rate
Optical heart rate measurement from the wrist is an easy and convenient way to track your
heart rate. To get the best results, please keep in mind factors that may affect heart rate
measurement:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•

The watch must be worn directly against your skin. No clothing, however thin, can be
between the sensor and your skin.
The watch may need to be higher on your arm than where watches are normally worn.
The sensor reads blood flow through tissue. The more tissue it can read, the better.
Arm movements and flexing muscles, such as gripping a tennis racket, can change the
accuracy of the sensor readings.
When your heart rate is low, the sensor may not be able to provide stable readings. A
short warm up of a few minutes before you start the recording helps.
Dark skin and tattoos block light and prevent reliable readings from the optical sensor.
The optical sensor may not provide accurate heart rate readings for swimming activities.
For highest accuracy and quickest responses to changes in your heart rate, we
recommend using a compatible chest heart rate sensor such as Suunto Smart Sensor.

WARNING: Optical heart rate sensor technology is currently not as accurate or reliable
as measuring heart rate from the chest. Your actual heart rate may be higher or lower than
the optical sensor reading.

2.3. Displays
Displays are customizable and subject to change with software updates. The basic
arrangement remains, however, the same, as illustrated below.

Suunto Spartan Trainer Wrist HR

3. Features
3.1. Activity monitoring
Your watch keeps track of your overall level of activity throughout the day. This is an important
factor whether you just aim to be fit and healthy or you are training for an upcoming
competition. It is good to be active, but when training hard, you need to have proper rest days
with low activity.
The activity counter automatically resets at midnight every day. At the end of the week, the
watch provides a summary of your activity.
From the watch face display, press the lower right button to see your total steps for the day.

Your watch counts steps using an accelerometer. The total step count accumulates 24/7, also
while recording training sessions and other activities. However, with some specific sports,
such as swimming and cycling, steps are not counted.
In addition to steps, you can press the upper left button to see estimated calories for the day.

The large number in the center of the display is the estimated amount of active calories you
have burned so far. Below this you see the total calories burned. The total includes both
active calories and your Basal Metabolic Rate (see below).
The ring in both displays indicates how close you are to your daily activity goals. These
targets can be adjusted to your personal preferences (see below).
You can also check your activity over the last seven days by pressing the lower left button.
Press the middle button to switch between steps and calories.

Activity goals
You can adjust your daily goals for both steps and calories. While in the activity display, keep
the middle button pressed to open the activity goal settings.

Suunto Spartan Trainer Wrist HR

When setting your steps goal, you define the total number of steps for the day.
The total calories you burn per day is based on two factors: your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR)
and your physical activity.

Your BMR is the amount of calories your body burns while at rest. These are the calories your
body needs to stay warm and perform basic function like blink your eyes or beat your heart.
This number is based on your personal profile, including factors such as age and gender.
When you set a calorie goal, you define how many calories you want to burn in addition to
your BMR. These are your so-called active calories. The ring around the activity display
advances according to how many active calories you burn during the day compared to your
goal.

3.1.1. Instant HR
The instant HR display provides a quick snapshot of your heart rate. The display shows your
heart rate over ten minutes as a graph, along with an estimation of your hourly calories
consumption rate and your current heart rate.

To view instant HR:
1. From the watch face view, press the lower right button to scroll to the activity monitoring
display.
2. Press the middle button to enter the instant HR display .
3. Press the upper button to exit the display and return to the watch face view.

3.1.2. Daily HR
The daily HR display provides a 12-hour view of your heart rate. This is a helpful source of
information about, for example, your recovery after a hard training session.
The display shows your heart rate over 12 hours as a graph. The graph is plotted using your
average heart rate based on 24-minute time slots. In addition, you get an estimation of your
average hourly calorie consumption rate and your lowest heart rate during the 12- hour
period.
Your minimum heart rate from the last 12 hours is a good indicator of your recovery state. If it
is higher than normal, you probably are not fully recovered yet form your last training session.

Suunto Spartan Trainer Wrist HR

If you record an exercise, the daily HR values reflect the elevated heart rate and calorie
consumption from your training. But keep in mind that the graph and consumption rates are
averages. If your heart rate peaks at 200 bpm while exercising, the graph does not show that
maximum value, but rather the average from the 24 minutes when you hit that peak rate.
Before you can see the daily HR display, you need to activate the daily HR feature. You can
toggle the feature on or off from the settings under Activity. If you are in the activity
monitoring display, you can also access the activity settings by keeping the middle button
pressed.
With the daily HR feature on, your watch activates the optical heart rate sensor on a regular
basis to check your heart rate. This slightly increases battery power consumption.

Once activated, your watch needs 24 minutes before it can start display daily HR information.
To view daily HR:
1. From the watch face view, press the lower right button to scroll to the activity monitoring
display.
2. Press the middle button to enter the instant HR display and then press the middle button
again to switch to the daily HR display.
3. Press the upper right button to exit the display and return to the watch face view.
NOTE: After a period of inactivity, such as when you are not wearing the watch or
sleeping soundly, the watch goes into hibernation mode and turns off the optical heart rate
sensor. If you want to get heart rate tracking during the night, activate Do Not Disturb mode
(see 3.10. Do Not Disturb mode).

3.2. Airplane mode
Activate airplane mode when needed to turn off wireless transmissions. You can activate or
deactivate airplane mode from the settings under Connectivity.

NOTE: To pair anything with your device, you need to first turn off airplane mode if you
have it on.

3.3. Altimeter
Suunto Spartan Trainer Wrist HR uses GPS to measure altitude. Under optimal signal
conditions, eliminating potential errors typical in calculating GPS position, the GPS altitude
reading should give a pretty good indication of your elevation.

Suunto Spartan Trainer Wrist HR

To get a more precise reading from GPS altitude, comparable to what you can get from
barometric altitude, you need additional sources of data like a gyroscope or Doppler radar to
adjust GPS altitude.
Because Suunto Spartan Trainer Wrist HR relies solely on GPS to measure altitude, if the GPS
is not set for maximum accuracy, any filtering is subject to error and may result in potentially
inaccurate altitude readings.
If you need good elevation readings, ensure your GPS accuracy is set to Best during the
recording.
However, even with the best accuracy, GPS altitude should not be considered an absolute
position. It is an estimation of your real elevation, and the accuracy of this estimation is heavily
dependent on the surrounding conditions.

3.4. Autopause
Autopause pauses the recording of your exercise when your speed is less than 2 km/h (1.2
mph). When your speed increases to more than 3 km/h (1.9 mph), the recording continues
automatically.
You can turn autopause on/off for each sport mode in Suunto Movescount. You can also turn
on or off autopause from the sport mode settings in the watch before you start your exercise
recording.
If autopause is on during a recording, a pop-up notifies you when the recording is paused
automatically.

Press the middle button to check the current time and battery level.

You can let the recording resume automatically when you start moving again, or manually
resume from the pop-up screen by pressing the upper right button.

3.5. Backlight
The backlight has two modes: automatic and toggle. In automatic mode, the backlight comes
on with any button press. In toggle mode, you turn the backlight on by keeping the upper left
button pressed. The backlight stays on until you keep the upper left button pressed again.
By default, the backlight is in automatic mode. You can change the backlight mode from the
settings under General » Backlight.

Suunto Spartan Trainer Wrist HR

3.6. Button lock and screen dimming
While recording an exercise you can lock the buttons by keeping the lower right button
pressed. Once locked, you cannot change the display views, but you can turn on the
backlight with any button press if the backlight is in automatic mode.
To unlock, keep the lower right button pressed again.
When you are not recording an exercise, the screen dims after a short period of inactivity. To
activate the screen, press any button.
After a longer period of inactivity, the watch goes into hibernation mode and turns the screen
off completely. Any movement reactivates the screen.

3.7. Chest heart rate sensor
You can use a BluetoothⓇ Smart compatible heart rate sensor, such as the Suunto Smart
Sensor, with your Suunto Spartan Trainer Wrist HR to get accurate information about your
exercise intensity.
If you use the Suunto Smart Sensor, you also have the added advantage of heart rate
memory. The sensor memory function buffers data if the connection to your watch is
interrupted, for example, when swimming (no transmission under water).
It also means you can even leave your watch behind after starting a recording. For more
information, please refer to the Suunto Smart Sensor User Guide.
Refer to the user guide for Suunto Smart Sensor or other BluetoothⓇ Smart compatible heart
rate sensor for additional information.
See 3.20. Pairing PODs and sensors for instructions on how to pair an HR sensor with your
watch.

3.8. Device info
You can check details of your watch software and hardware from the settings under General »
About.

3.9. Display theme
To increase the readability of your watch screen while exercising or navigating, you can
change between light and dark themes.
With the light theme, the display background is light and the numbers dark.
With the dark theme, the contrast is reverse, with the background dark and the numbers light.
The theme is a global setting that you can change in your watch from any of your sport mode
options or from the navigation settings.

Switch between Light and Dark by pressing the upper right and lower right buttons and
accept with the middle button.
6. Exit the navigation settings by keeping the middle button pressed.

3.10. Do Not Disturb mode
The Do Not Disturb mode is a setting that mutes all sounds and vibrations, making it a very
useful option when wearing the watch in, for example, a theater or any environment where
you want the watch to operate as usual, but silently.
The Do Not Disturb mode also prevents the watch from going into hibernation after a period
of inactivity. So, you can enable this setting along with Daily HR (see 3.1.2. Daily HR) to get
heart rate tracking 24/7.
To turn on the Do Not Disturb mode:
1. From the watch face, press the middle button to open the shortcuts menu.
2. Press the middle button to activate Do Not Disturb mode.
While in this mode, press any button to activate the screen. When the screen is on, press the
upper right button to turn off the Do Not Disturb mode.
If you have an alarm set, it sounds as normal and disables Do Not Disturb mode unless you
snooze the alarm.

3.11. Feeling
If you are training regularly, following how you feel after each session is an important indicator
of your overall physical condition. A coach or personal trainer can also use your feeling trend
to track your progress over time.
There are five degrees of feeling to choose from:
•
•
•
•
•

Poor
Average
Good
Very good
Excellent

What these options mean exactly are up to you (and your coach) to decide. The important
thing is that you use them consistently.
For each training session, you can record how you felt in the watch directly after stopping the
recording by answering the 'How was it?' question.

Suunto Spartan Trainer Wrist HR

You can skip answering the question by pressing the middle button and instead add how you
felt later by editing the Move in Suunto Movescount.
Once you start regularly using the feeling metric, you can quickly check your 7-day and 30day trend from you timeline overview in Movescount.

For longer-term trend analysis, go to your Moves page. Select the time period you want to
see from the calendar and scroll down to the Rest & Recovery section to see the feeling trend
graph.

3.12. Find back
If you are using GPS when recording an activity, Suunto Spartan Trainer Wrist HR
automatically saves the starting point of your exercise. With Find back, Suunto Spartan Trainer
Wrist HR can guide you directly back to your starting point.
To start find back:
1. While you are recording an activity, press the middle button until you have reached the
navigation display.
2. Press the lower right button to open the shortcut menu.
3. Scroll to Find back and press the middle button to select.
4. Press the lower left button to exit and return to the navigation display.
The navigation guidance is shown as the last display on the selected sport mode.

3.13. FusedSpeed
FusedSpeedTM 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
responses to changes in speed.

TIP: To get the most accurate readings with FusedSpeed, only glance shortly at the
watch when needed. Holding the watch in front of you without moving it reduces the
accuracy.
FusedSpeed is automatically enabled for running and other similar types of activities, such as
orienteering, floor ball and football (soccer).

3.14. GPS accuracy and power saving
The GPS fix rate determines the accuracy of your track - the shorter the interval is between
fixes, the better the track accuracy is. Each GPS fix is recorded in your log when recording an
exercise.
The GPS fix rate also directly affects battery life. By reducing GPS accuracy, you can extend
the battery life of your watch.
The GPS accuracy options are:
•
•
•

Best: ~ 1 sec fix rate
Good: ~ 20 sec fix rate
OK: ~ 60 sec fix rate

You can change GPS accuracy from the sport options in your watch or under the advanced
options for the sport mode on Suunto Movescount.
19

Suunto Spartan Trainer Wrist HR

Whenever you navigate a route or a POI, the GPS accuracy is automatically set to Best.
NOTE: The first time you exercise or navigate with GPS, wait for the watch to acquire a
GPS fix before starting. This may take 30 seconds or more depending on conditions.

3.15. Interval training
Interval workouts are a common form of training consisting of repetitive sets of high and low
intensity efforts. With Suunto Spartan Trainer Wrist HR, you can define in the watch your own
interval training for each sport mode.
When defining your intervals, you have four items to set:
•
•
•
•

Intervals: on/off toggle that enables interval training. When you toggle this on, an interval
training display is added to your sport mode.
Repetitions: the number of interval + recovery sets you want to do.
Interval: the length of your high intensity interval, based on distance or duration.
Recovery: the length of your rest period between intervals, based on distance or duration.

Keep in mind that if you use distance to define your intervals, you need to be in a sport mode
that measures distance. The measurement can be based on GPS, or from a foot or bike POD,
for example.
NOTE: If you are using intervals, you cannot activate navigation.
To train with intervals:
1. From the launcher, select your sport.
2. Before you start an exercise recording, press the lower right button to open the sport
mode options.
3. Scroll down to Intervals and press the middle button.
4. Toggle intervals on and adjust the settings described above.

5. Scroll up to Back and confirm with the middle button.
6. Press the upper right button until you are back at the start view and start your exercise as
normal.
7. Press the lower left button to change the view to intervals display and press the upper
right button when you are ready to start your interval training.

8. If you want to stop the interval training before you have completed all your repetitions,
keep the middle button pressed to open the sport mode options and toggle off Intervals.
NOTE: While you are in the intervals display, buttons work as normal, for example,
pressing the upper right button pauses the exercise recording, not just the interval training.
20

Suunto Spartan Trainer Wrist HR

After you have stopped your exercise recording, interval training is automatically toggled off
for that sport mode. The other settings, however, are maintained so you can easily start the
same workout the next time you use the sport mode.

3.24. Recovery
Recovery time is an estimate in hours of how long your body needs to recuperate after
training. The time is based on the duration and intensity of the training session, as well as
your overall fatigue.
Recovery time accumulates from all types of exercise. In other words, you accumulate
recovery time on long, low intensity training session as well as at high intensity.
The time is cumulative across training sessions, so if you train again before the time has
expired, the newly accumulated time is added to the remainder from your previous training
session.
To view your recovery time, from the watch face, press the lower right button until you see the
recovery display.

Because recovery time is an estimation only, the accumulated hours count down steadily
regardless of your fitness level or other individual factors. If you are very fit, you may recover
30

Suunto Spartan Trainer Wrist HR

faster than estimated. On the other hand, if you have the flu, for example, your recovery may
be slower than estimated.

3.25. Routes
You can use your Suunto Spartan Trainer Wrist HR to navigate routes. Plan your route in
Suunto Movescount and transfer it to your watch with the next sync.

If you stray too far off from the route while using altitude navigation, your watch will give you
an Off route message in the altitude profile display. If you see this message, scroll to the
route navigation display to get back on track before continuing with altitude navigation.

3.26. Sleep tracking
A good night's sleep is important for a healthy mind and body. You can use your watch to
track your sleep and follow how much sleep you are getting on average.
When you wear your watch to bed, Suunto Spartan Trainer Wrist HR tracks your sleep based
on accelerometer data. You can leave the watch next to your bed when going to sleep, but
we recommend leaving it on so that you can get more accurate sleep feedback.
To track sleep:
1. Go to your watch settings, scroll down to SLEEP and press the middle button.
2. Toggle on SLEEP TRACKING.

3. Set the times for going to bed and waking up according to your normal sleep schedule.
The last step defines your bedtime. Your watch uses that period to determine when you are
sleeping (during your bedtime) and reporting all sleep as one session. If you get up for a drink
of water during the night, for example, your watch still counts any sleep after that as the same
session.
NOTE: If you go to bed before your bedtime and also wake up after your bedtime, your
watch does not count that as a sleep session. You should set your bedtime according to the
earliest you may go to bed and the latest you may wake up.
Once you have enabled sleep tracking, you can also set your sleep target. A typical adult
needs between 7 and 9 hours of sleep per day, though your ideal amount of sleep may vary
from the norms.

Sleep trends
When you wake up, you are greeted with a summary of your sleep. The summary includes, for
example, the total duration of your sleep, as well as the estimated time you were awake
(moving around) and the time you were in deep sleep (no movement).

Suunto Spartan Trainer Wrist HR

In addition to the sleep summary, you can follow your overall sleep trend with the sleep
insight. From the watch face, press the lower right button until you see the SLEEP display. The
first view shows your last sleep compared to your sleep target.

While in the sleep display you can press the lower left button to see your average sleep over
the last seven days.
From the SLEEP display, you can keep the middle button pressed to access sleep tracking
settings and the latest sleep summary.
NOTE: All sleep measurements are based on movement only, so they are estimates that
may not reflect your actual sleep habits.

Measuring heart rate while sleeping
If you wear your watch during the night, you can get additional feedback on your heart rate
while sleeping. To keep the optical heart rate on during the night, ensure that Daily HR is
enabled (see 3.1.2. Daily HR) and Do Not Disturb mode is activated (see 3.10. Do Not Disturb
mode).

Automatic Do Not Disturb mode
You can use the auto Do Not Disturb setting to automatically enable Do Not Distrub mode
while you sleep.

3.27. Software updates
Software updates for your watch bring new features and important improvements. We
strongly recommend updating your watch as soon as an update is available.
If an update is available, you are notified via SuuntoLink as well as the Suunto Movescount
App.
To update your watch software:
1. Plug your watch into the computer with the supplied USB cable.
2. Start SuuntoLink if it is not already running.
3. Click the update button in SuuntoLink.

3.28. Sport modes
Your watch comes with a wide range of pre-defined sport modes. The modes are designed
for specific activities and purposes, from a casual walk outside to a triathlon race.
When you record an exercise (see 3.23. Recording an exercise), you can scroll up and down
to see the short list of sport modes. Press the middle button by the icon at the end of the
short list to view the complete list and see all sport modes.

Suunto Spartan Trainer Wrist HR

Each sport mode has a unique set of displays and views. You can read more about each
mode in Suunto Movescount under your watch settings. You can also shorten the list of
modes in your watch through Movescount.

3.28.1. Swimming
You can use your Suunto Spartan Trainer Wrist HR for swimming in pools or openwater.
When you use a pool swimming sport mode, the watch relies on the pool length to determine
distance. You can change the pool length as needed under the sport mode options before
you start swimming
Openwater swimming relies on GPS to calculate distance. Because GPS signals do not travel
under water, the watch needs to come out of the water periodically, such as with the freestyle
stroke, to get a GPS fix.
These are challenging conditions for GPS, so it is important that you have a strong GPS signal
before you jump in the water. To ensure good GPS, you should:
•
•

Sync your watch with Movescount before you go swimming to optimize your GPS with the
latest satellite orbit data.
After you select an openwater swimming sport mode and a GPS signal is acquired, wait at
least three minutes before starting your swim. This gives the GPS time to establish strong
positioning.
