Suunto t6 is your
personal tool for better performance in sports. It
measures the time between your heartbeats with the
accuracy of milliseconds and records it for deeper
analysis. The Suunto Training Manager PC
software uses the heart rate variation data to
analyze the effect of your training and to calculate
several other body parameters. Relating this
information with your current fitness level, the
software also indicates the scale of training load
that you need for different training effects.
For the first time, in field conditions, Suunto t6
tells you whether your training really improves your
condition and helps you adjust your training
programs accordingly.
Set the 'target
effect' for your training, now use the software to
calculate the time and heart rate it will take to
reach your goal! During a training session,
Suunto t6 helps you reach your 'target effect' by
offering several control functions, such as heart
rate limits, real-time average heart rate, and a
customizable display of stopwatch, lap time,
interval timer and altitude. Together with
versatile timing, altimeter and logbook functions
this makes Suunto t6 a perfect performance monitor
for all kinds of sports at all performance levels.
Suunto t6 can be upgraded with different wireless
accessories, such as speed-and-distance sensors for
running shoes and cycles. These Suunto ANT
sensors, and the Suunto t6 heart rate chest strap
sensor, communicate digitally on 2.4 GHz radio
frequency. This offers several benefits, such
as improved transmission capacity, error-free 2-way
transmission and useful range up to 10 m / 33 ft.
Heart Rate Chest Strap
Sensor - Conventional heart rate monitoring devices
use inductive low frequency communication methods.
Therefore other heart rate belts are not compatible
with the Suunto t6.

SUUNTO t6 WATER RESISTANCE
+ Lap Swimming
Your Suunto t6 is
water resistant up to 100 m/330 ft and the
transmitter belt to 20m (66ft) according to ISO 2281
International standard (www.iso.ch).
This means that you can use your Suunto t6 for
swimming and other water sports activities; but it
must not be used for scuba diving, Skin Diving, or freediving.
To maintain water
resistance and to ensure that the warranty
protection remains valid, it is strongly recommended
to have all service, except for battery change, done
by authorized Suunto service personnel.
NOTE: Never push the
buttons while swimming or in contact with water.
Deliberate or unintentional pressing of the buttons
while the unit is submerged could cause the unit to
malfunction.
NOTE: Even though both
the Suunto t6 and the transmitter belt are
water-resistant, the radio signal does not carry in
water, which makes the communication between Suunto
t6 and the transmitter belt impossible.
SUUNTO t6 BATTERY REPLACEMENT
Your Suunto t6
operates on a 3-Volt lithium cell, type: CR 2032.
This battery can be replaced by the owner. The
life expectancy is approximately 12 months in the
Time mode or 300 hours of heart rate transmission in
ideal operating temperatures.
The low-battery
warning indicator is activated on the display when
approximately 515 percent of the battery capacity
is still available. When this occurs, you
should replace the battery. However, extremely
cold weather may activate the low battery warning
indicator even when the battery is still fully
operational. If the low battery warning
indicator is activated in temperatures above 10°C
(50°F), replace the battery.
NOTE: When the
low-battery warning indicator is on, the HR
transmission becomes automatically disabled.
NOTE: Replace the
battery with extreme care to ensure that your Suunto
t6 remains water-resistant. Careless battery
replacement may void warranty.
