HINTS AND TROUBLESHOOTING
GPS does not take fix
Do you have a clear visibility to the sky? Try holding the unit in an open area with clear
visibility to sky. Do not hold the unit against your body. Do not hold your hand or head
above the unit. Turn the GPS off and then on again.
NOTE! When you arrive at the course, turn the GPS on manually and place the unit on the
roof of your car while you unpack your gear from the car. This helps the GPS to download
the satellite data.
Suunto G9 displays the message No GPS fix when you mark the ball
The visibility to the sky is not good enough. Suunto G9 marks the score but does not mark
the position. You can retry it by selecting Undo in the Game menu and selecting the
MARK BALL again.
Suunto G9 displays the message Memory full
This is caused by defragmentation in the file system. Save your data with Suunto Golf
Manager and clear the Suunto G9 memory with the Suunto Golf Manager Memory
Manager or by selecting ERASE ALL in the Course mode´s Function menu. Restore the
courses with Suunto Golf Manager.
Why does Suunto G9 sometimes increase the hole´s total score when I increase
the number of putts?
The Suunto G9 starts to increase the hole´s total score when the number of putts is equal
to the total score -1. For example, your total score is 5. You increase the putts to 4 and G9
does not increase the total score. If you still increase the number of putts, Suunto G9
increases the total score because you must have at least one stroke to arrive to the green.
What if I forget to mark the tee?
If you forgot to mark the tee and are already at the fairway, you do not have to return to
the tee. Simply select MARK BALL (or PROVISIONAL BALL, DROP or WATER depending
on the situation). If you are playing on a stored course, Suunto G9 will use the stored tee
position for the distance display. If you play on an unknown course, you do not get the
distance for the first stroke.
