The Suunto t3 is a high-precision heart rate monitor designed to make your training as efficient and enjoyable as possible. Suunto t3 goes beyond conventional heart rate monitors by showing Training Effect (TE). Training Effect tells you in real time how much a workout improves your condition. [. . . ] 80 - 90% of maximum heart Improves your maximum aerobic capacity and lactate tolerance rate ability (anaerobic threshold) - meaning your maximum endurance will improve and you'll be able to fight fatigue better. 23 NOTE The heart rate zone defaults follow the guidelines of the American College of Sports Medicine for exercise prescription. The average heart rate is also a useful measure during training where the heart rate levels vary a lot, such as biking in hilly terrain. In these cases, the target zone limits are less practical than the average heart rate. 2. 4. 4. Intervals settings In the Intervals menu, you can set interval 1 and 2 on or off and define their times. Accept the settings with a short press of the MODE button, which also moves you on to the next menu item. 2. 4. 5.

Long press the MODE button in Speed and Distance mode to enter Speed and Distance settings menu. Use + and ­ buttons to toggle between the following Speed and Distance setting submenus: autolap, speed, calibrate, pair a POD and general. 2 sec Take a look at the following table showing the different Speed and Distance mode settings and the items you can define in them. 25 Symbol Setting Autolap Options Autolap: on/off Distance Speed Limits: on/off Lower limit Upper limit Calibrate Calibrate: Foot POD/ Bike POD Pair a POD Pair: heart rate belt / Foot POD / Bike POD / GPS POD General Tones: on/off Heart rate: bpm/ % Height: Weight: Time: Date: Save: Foot, Bike cm/ft kg/lb 12h/24h ddmm/ ask/all or GPS: mmdd /km, mph, /mi, km/h 2. 5. 1. Autolap settings In the Autolap menu, you can set the autolap function on or off and set the distance for each lap. When autolap is set on, and you have a paired speed and distance POD, the device beeps and shows total distance, average lap speed, and lap time for 5 seconds with each lap. 26 2. 5. 2. Speed settings In the Speed menu, you can set the speed limit on or off and define the upper and lower speed limits. 2. 5. 3. Calibrate settings In the Calibrate menu, you can calibrate your Suunto Foot POD or Suunto Bike POD. An alternative way of calibrating your POD is to run or cycle a known distance, say 10 km, using the POD. If you do not reset the stopwatch after completing the distance, you can correct the distance shown, for example 9. 6 km, from the settings. The GPS POD is also listed in the Calibrate menu but the calibration has no effect on the GPS POD measurements. You will need this calibration only if you have, for instance, two Bike PODs for different bikes. You can then pair one of them as GPS POD and use the calibration in the same way as you normally would with Bike POD. 2. 5. 4. Wireless speed and distance PODs Optional wireless speed and distance PODs are light, easy-to-use, and accurate. Since the devices (Suunto Foot POD, Suunto Bike POD, and Suunto GPS POD) differ from each other, they come with separate user's guides, which you should read for more detailed information on their use. When you have paired and calibrated a speed and distance POD with your Suunto t3, you can take advantage of the Speed and Distance mode, as well as speed and distance-related control functions and information. 27 3. Putting on the heart rate transmitter belt The heart rate transmitter belt is an integral part of Suunto t3's functionality, so it's important that you know how to wear it correctly.
