Suunto 3 Fitness

Real-time guidance

If you have a planned exercise scheduled for the current day, that activity appears as the first

option in the sport mode list when you enter the exercise view to start an exercise recording.

If you want real-time guidance, start the recommended excercise as you would a normal

recording, see 3.20. Recording an exercise.

NOTE: Today's planned activity is also visible when pressing the middle button in the

watch face view.

When exercising according to a planned exercise, you will see a green progress bar and

percentage of your progress. The goal is estimated based on planned intensity and duration.

When you exercise within the planned intensity (based on your heart rate), you should reach

the goal around the planned duration. Higher exercise intensity will get you to the goal faster.

Similarly a lower intensity will take longer.

3.3. 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.

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 3 Fitness uses Bluetooth technology to send and receive information from your

mobile device when you have paired your watch with the Suunto app. Same technology is

also used when pairing PODs and sensors.

However, if you do not want your watch to be visible for Bluetooth scanners, you can activate

or deactivate the discovery setting from the settings under Connectivity » Discovery.
