3.31. 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 3.27. Recording an exercise), you can swipe up and down
to see the short list of sport modes. Tap the icon at the end of the short list to view the
complete list and see all sport modes.
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.

3.31.1. Swimming

You can use your Suunto Spartan Sport 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.

3.32. Sunrise and sunset alarms

The sunrise/sunset alarms in your Suunto Spartan Sport are adaptive alarms based on your
location. Instead of setting a fixed time, you set the alarm for how much in advance you want
to be alerted before the actual sunrise or sunset.
