Suunto Spartan Ultra
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.
3.2. 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 Ultra uses barometric pressure to measure altitude. To get accurate readings,
you need to define an altitude reference point. This can be your current elevation if you know
the exact value. Alternatively, you can use FusedAlti (see 3.3.1. FusedAlti) to set your
reference point automatically.
Set your reference point from the settings under Outdoor.
