3.3. Alti-Baro

With ALTI-BARO you can view the current altitude or barometric pressure. Press [Next] in TIME mode to view the ALTI & BARO display.

You can show/hide the ALTI-BARO display under the start menu DISPLAYS » Alti-Baro. Toggle with [Next] .

You can access dierent views depending on which proﬁle is activated by pressing [View] .

Three proﬁles are available: Automatic, Barometer and Altimeter. For information on setting proﬁles, see 3.3.2. Matching proﬁle to activity.

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.

3.3.1. Getting correct readings

Suunto Ambit3 Peak constantly measures absolute air pressure using the built-in pressure sensor. 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.

If your outdoor activity requires accurate sea level air pressure or altitude, you need to calibrate your Suunto Ambit3 Peak by entering either your current altitude or the current sea level air pressure.

TIP: Absolute air pressure and known altitude reference = sea level air pressure. Absolute air pressure and known sea level air pressure = altitude.

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 Suunto FusedAltiTM is activated, the altitude reading will be corrected automatically using FusedAlti together with altitude and sea level pressure calibration. For more information, see

3.14. FusedAlti.

Changes in local weather conditions will 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.

To set the sea level pressure and altitude reference values:

3.3.2. 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, sailing, canoeing).

To get correct readings, you need to match the 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.

Suunto Ambit3 Peak

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.

Incorrect readings

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.

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.

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.

3.3.3. 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, the altimeter icon is shown on the display.

When the Altimeter proﬁle is activated, you can access the following views:

•

top row: your current altitude

•

middle row: graph displaying altitude changes over the past 24 hours (15 min. recording

interval)

•

bottom row: change with [View] to show time, temperature, sunrise/sunset, or reference

NOTE: If you are wearing your Suunto Ambit3 Peak on your wrist, you will need to take it

o in order to get an accurate temperature reading because your body temperature will aect the initial reading.

3.3.4. 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.

Changes in the sea level air pressure are presented graphically in the middle row of the display.

When the Barometer

proﬁle is activated, the barometer icon is shown on the display.

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 changes over the past 24 hours (15 min.

recording interval)

•

bottom row: change with [View] to show time, temperature, sunrise/sunset, or reference

altitude

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

•

the latest altitude logged in the Automatic proﬁle before changing to the Barometer

proﬁle, or

proﬁle.

NOTE: If you are wearing your Suunto Ambit3 Peak on your wrist, you will need to take it

o in order to get an accurate temperature reading because your body temperature will aect the initial reading.

3.3.5. 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.

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

Suunto Ambit3 Peak

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.

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.

heart rate in real time

•

average heart rate in real time

•

heart rate in graph form

•

calories burned during exercise

•

guidance to exercise within

•

Peak Training

Eect

deﬁned heart rate limits

And after exercise, the heart rate sensor provides:

•

total calories burned during exercise

•

average heart rate

•

peak heart rate

•

recovery time

If you use the Suunto Smart Sensor, you also have the added advantage of heart rate memory. The Suunto Smart Sensor memory function

buers data whenever the transmission

to your Suunto Ambit3 Peak is interrupted.

This allows you to get accurate exercise intensity information in activities such as swimming where water blocks the transmission. It also means you can even leave your Suunto Ambit3 Peak behind after starting a recording. For more information, please refer to the Suunto Smart Sensor User Guide.

Without a heart rate sensor, your Suunto Ambit3 Peak provides calorie consumption and recovery time for running and cycling activities where speed is used to estimate intensity. However, we recommend using a heart rate sensor to get accurate intensity readings.

The built-in GPS receiver in Suunto Ambit3 Peak is optimized for wrist use and receives data from a very wide angle.

3.22.1. 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.

Suunto Ambit3 Peak

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.

TIP: Regularly synchronize your Suunto Ambit3 Peak with Suunto app to get the latest satellite orbit data (GPS optimization). This reduces the time needed to get the GPS ﬁx and improves track accuracy.

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.

3.22.2. 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 position format in the watch settings under GENERAL » Format » Position format.

You can select the format from the following grids:

•

latitude/longitude is the most commonly used grid and has three

3.24.2. Using foot POD

When using a foot POD, the POD is auto calibrated by GPS at short intervals during exercise. However, the foot POD always remains the source of speed and distance when it is paired and active for the given sport mode.

Foot POD auto calibration is on by default. It can be turned

o in the sport mode options

menu under ACTIVATE, if the foot POD is paired and is used for the selected sport mode.

For more accurate speed and distance measurements, you can manually calibrate the foot POD. Perform the calibration on an accurately measured distance, for instance, on a 400 meter running track.

To calibrate foot POD with Suunto Ambit3 Peak:

1. Attach foot POD to your shoe. For more information, see user guide for the foot POD you

are using.

2. Choose a sport mode (for example Running) in the start menu.

3. Start running at your usual pace. When you cross the starting line, press [Start Stop] to

start the recording.

4. Run a distance of 800–1000 meters (about 0.500–0.700 miles) at your usual pace (for

example two laps on a 400 meter track).

5. Press [Start Stop] when you reach the

ﬁnish line to pause the recording.

6. Press [Back Lap] to stop recording. After stopping the exercise, save the log by pressing

[Start Stop] . If you do not want to save the log, press [Light Lock] . Scroll with [Next]

through summary views, until you reach the distance summary. Adjust the distance shown

on the display to the actual distance you ran with [Start Stop] and [Light Lock] .

Conﬁrm

with [Next] .

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 from the your wrist. Running cadence measured from wrist is used together with FusedSpeed (see 3.15. 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.

3.26. Recovery

Your Suunto Ambit3 Peak provides two indicators for following your need to recover after training: recovery time and recovery status.

Suunto Ambit3 Peak

3.26.1. Recovery time

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.

The number of hours you accumulated for a given training session is shown in the summary at the end of the session.

The total number of hours of recovery time you have remaining is shown as a view of in the activity monitoring display (see 3.2. Activity monitoring).

Because recovery time is an estimation only, the accumulated hours are counted down steadily regardless of your recover faster than estimated. On the other hand, if you have the ﬂu, for example, your recovery may be slower than estimated.

ﬁtness level or other individual factors. If you are very ﬁt, you may

To get an accurate indication of your actual recovery state, we recommend using one of the recover tests (see 3.26.2. Recovery status).

3.26.2. Recovery status

Recovery status indicates the amount of stress on your autonomic nervous system. The less stress you have, the more recovered you are. Knowing your state of recovery helps you optimize your training and avoid over training or injury.

You can check your recovery status with the quick recovery test or sleep recovery test, powered by Firstbeat. The tests require a Bluetooth-compatible heart rate sensor that measures heart rate variability (R-R interval), such as Suunto Smart Sensor.

Your recovery status is indicated with 0-100% result scale as explained in the table below.

Result

81-100 Fully recovered. OK to train up to very hard intensity.

51-80 Recovered. OK to train up to hard intensity.

21-50 Recovering. Train easy.

0-20 Not recovered. Rest to recover.

Explanation

NOTE: Values below 50% measured on several consecutive days indicate an increased need to rest.

Test calibration

Both the sleep test and quick test need to be calibrated in order to provide accurate results.

The calibration tests deﬁne what 'fully recovered' means for your body. With each calibration test, your watch adjusts the results scale of the test to match your unique heart rate variability.

Relax

Suunto Ambit3 Peak

You need to perform three calibration tests for both tests. These need to be done when you have no accumulated recovery time. Ideally, you also feel fully recovered and are not ill or stressed during these calibration tests.

During the calibration period, you may get results that are higher or lower than expected. These results are indicated in the watch as your estimated recovery status until the calibration is completed.

Once you have completed the calibration, the latest result is displayed when you enter the logbook instead of recovery time.

3.26.2.1. Quick recovery test

The quick recovery test, powered by Firstbeat, is an alternative way to measure your recovery status. The sleep recovery test is a more accurate method to measure your recovery status. But for some individuals, wearing a heart rate sensor throughout the night may not be feasible.

The quick recovery test only takes a few minutes. For best results, you should lie down, stay relaxed, and not move around during the test.

We recommend performing the test in the morning after waking up. This helps ensure you get comparable results day to day.

You need to perform three tests while you are feeling well recovered and have no accumulated recovery time to calibrate the test algorithm.

The calibration tests do not need to be done in sequence, but they need to be at least 12 hours apart.

During this calibration period, you may get results that are higher or lower than expected. These results are indicated in the watch as your estimated recovery status until the calibration is completed.

To perform a quick recovery test:

1. Put on your heart rate belt and ensure the electrodes are moist.

2. Lie down and relax in a quiet environment free from disturbances.

3. Press [Start Stop] , scroll to RECOVERY with [Start Stop] , and select with [Next] .

4. Scroll to Quick test and select with [Next] .

5. Wait for the test to complete.

When the test is complete, scroll through the results with [Next] and [Back Lap] .

If the lowest heart rate during the test is below your rest heart rate deﬁned in Movescount, your rest heart rate is updated the next time you sync with Movescount.

NOTE: The results of this test do not impact your accumulated recovery time.

3.26.2.2. Sleep recovery test

The sleep recovery test, powered by Firstbeat, provides a reliable indicator of you recovery status after a night's sleep.

You need to perform three tests while you are feeling well recovered and have no accumulated recovery time to calibrate the test algorithm.

The calibration tests do not need to be done in sequence.

To perform a sleep recovery test:

1. Put on your heart rate belt and ensure the electrodes are moist.

2. Press [Start Stop] , scroll to RECOVERY with [Start Stop] , and select with [Next] .

3. Scroll to SLEEP TEST and select with [Next] .

4. If you want to cancel the test, press [Back Lap] .

5. When you are ready to get up in the morning, end the test by pressing [Start Stop] or

[Next] .

When the test is ended, scroll through the results with [Next] and [Back Lap] .

NOTE: The sleep recovery test requires at least two hours of good heart rate data to produce results. The results of this test do not impact your accumulated recovery time.

3.27. Routes

You can create a route in Movescount, or import a route created with another service.

To add a route:

1. Go to www.movescount.com and log in.

2. Sync your Suunto Ambit3 Peak with Movescount using Suuntolink and the supplied USB

3.28. Running performance level

Running performance level is a combined measurement of your physical ﬁtness and your running eciency, powered by Firstbeat.

Physical ﬁtness

Running performance level uses an estimation of your VO2max, a global standard for aerobic ﬁtness and endurance performance. V02max indicates your body’s maximal capability to transport and utilize oxygen.

V02max is

aected by the condition of your heart, lungs, circulatory system, and the ability of your muscles to utilize oxygen in energy production. VO2max is the most important single denominator of endurance performance of an athlete.

In addition, research has indicated that VO2max is also an important measure for health and wellbeing. At optimum running

eciency, your running performance level corresponds to

your real VO2max (ml/kg/min).

Running eciency

Running performance level also takes into account running eciency, a measurement of your running technique. This measurement also takes into account external factors such as terrain, running surface, weather, and running gear.

During a run

Your Suunto Ambit3 Peak provides real-time running performance feedback during your run.

The real-time feedback is available as a graph display in the default Running sport mode. You can add this graph to any sport mode that uses the running activity type. The real-time dierence (see below) can also be used as a data ﬁeld in your custom running sport modes.

During your run, the graph display shows your four data points, as illustrated below.

1. Baseline: for each run, your running performance baseline is calibrated to compensate for

external variables such as terrain and to wait for your heart rate to stabilize.

2. Real-time level: this is your real-time running performance level for the current run

displayed per kilometer/mile.

3. Real-time

running performance baseline and your real-time running performance level for the current run.

4. Distance: total distance for the current recording. The graph shows the last six kilometers

(~4 miles).

Interpreting the results

If you are new to running or just haven't been out for a while, your running performance may be quite low at see a corresponding increase in running performance.

Over a 4-20 week period, you may see an increase in running performance level up to 20%. If your running performance level is already good, it is dicult to improve further. In this situation, running performance level is better used as an endurance indicator.

Following the real-time performance and fatigue during the run. Endurance runners can use this information to learn how much fatigue seems manageable during long intensive runs. During races, this information helps you pace yourself properly.

Illustrated below are three samples running performance levels during runs. In the (1), performance is good. In the second (2), performance is bad and may indicate over training, illness, or just generally bad conditions. In the third graph (3), you see a typical long distance run where performance level drops steadily later in the run, indicate onset of fatigue.

4. Care and support

4.1. Handling guidelines

Handle the unit with care – do not knock or drop it.

Under normal circumstances the watch does not require servicing. After use, rinse it with fresh water, mild soap, and carefully clean the housing with a moist soft cloth or chamois.

Use only original Suunto accessories - damage caused by non-original accessories is not covered by warranty.

TIP: Remember to register your Suunto Ambit3 Peak at www.suunto.com/support to get

personalized support.

4.2. Water resistance

Suunto Ambit3 Peak is water resistant to 100 meters/330 feet/10 bars. The meter value relates to an actual diving depth and is tested in the water pressure used in the course of the Suunto water resistance test. This means you can use the watch for swimming and snorkeling, but it should not be used for any form of diving.

NOTE: Water resistance is not equivalent to functional operating depth. The water resistance marking refers to static air/water tightness withstanding shower, bathing, swimming, poolside diving and snorkeling.

To maintain water resistance, it is recommended to:

•

never use the device for other than intended use.

•

contact an authorized Suunto service, distributor or retailer for any repairs.

•

keep the device clean from dirt and sand.

•

never attempt to open the case yourself.

•

avoid subjecting the device to rapid air and water temperature changes.

•

always clean your device with fresh water if subjected to salt water.

•

never knock or drop the device.

4.3. Charging the battery

The duration on a single charge depends on how Suunto Ambit3 Peak is used and in what conditions. Low temperatures, for example, reduce the duration of a single charge. In general, the capacity of rechargeable batteries decreases over time.

NOTE: In case of abnormal capacity decrease due to defective battery, Suunto warranty covers the battery replacement for one year or for at maximum 300 charging times, whichever comes

ﬁrst.

The battery icon indicates the charge level of the battery. When the battery charge level is less than 10 %, the battery icon blinks for 30 seconds. When the battery charge level is less than 2 %, the battery icon blinks continuously.
