3.1 3D distance
Suunto Ambit3 Peakcan take both elevation gain and loss into
account when measuring distance. This gives you a more realistic
distance measurement when you are exercising in hilly or
mountainous terrain. In this scenario, 3D distance is greater than 2D

distance.

If you are using 3rd-party software to analyze your tracks, check
how the track distance is calculated. If the calculation is using 2D
distance, you may not want to activate 3D distance in your watch.
Otherwise, if you are frequently exercising in hilly or mountainous
terrain, you should activate 3D distance.
To activate 3D distance:
1. While in a sport mode, keep [Next] pressed to enter the options
menu.
2. Scroll to ACTIVATE with [Light Lock] and press [Next].
3. Scroll to 3D distance and press [Next] to switch to 3D distance.
4. Keep [Next] pressed to exit.
