Suunto Spartan Trainer Wrist HR
Before you can see the daily HR display, you need to activate the daily HR feature. You can
toggle the feature on or off from the settings under Activity. If you are in the daily HR display,
you can also access the activity settings by keeping the middle button pressed.
With the daily HR feature on, your watch activates the optical heart rate sensor on a regular
basis to check your heart rate. This slightly increases battery power consumption.
Once activated, your watch needs 24 minutes before it can start display daily HR information.
To view daily HR:
1. From the watch face view, press the lower right button to scroll to the instant HR display.
2. Press the middle button to enter the daily HR display.
3. Press the lower right button to see your calorie consumption.
NOTE: After a period of inactivity, such as when you are not wearing the watch or
sleeping soundly, the watch goes into hibernation mode and turns off the optical heart rate
sensor. If you want to get heart rate tracking during the night, activate Do Not Disturb mode
(see 3.11. Do Not Disturb mode).

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 Trainer Wrist HR uses GPS to measure altitude. Under optimal signal
conditions, eliminating potential errors typical in calculating GPS position, the GPS altitude
reading should give a pretty good indication of your elevation.
To get a more precise reading from GPS altitude, comparable to what you can get from
barometric altitude, you need additional sources of data like a gyroscope or Doppler radar to
adjust GPS altitude.
Because Suunto Spartan Trainer Wrist HR relies solely on GPS to measure altitude, if the GPS
is not set for maximum accuracy, any filtering is subject to error and may result in potentially
inaccurate altitude readings.
If you need good elevation readings, ensure your GPS accuracy is set to Best during the
recording.
