4 USING TRAINING MODE The TRAINING mode handles measurement of all your training activity. NOTE: Even though both Suunto t3d and the transmitter belt are water-resistant, the radio signal does not carry in water, which makes the communication between Suunto t3d and the transmitter belt impossible. 4.1 Putting on your transmitter belt Put on the bel[...]

WARNING: If you have a pacemaker, defibrillator, or other implanted electronic device, you use the transmitter belt at your own risk. Before using it, we recommend an exercise test with your Suunto heat rate monitor and belt under a doctor ’ s supervision. Exercise may include some risk, especially for those who have been inactive. We strongly ad[...]

4.3 During training Your Suunto heart rate monitor has a number of visual and audio indicators to help guide you during training. This information can be both helpful and rewarding. Here are some ideas on what to do while training: ● Lock the buttons to avoid accidentally stopping your log recorder. ● Switch to average heart rate view to check [...]

● Average and peak heart rate ● Calories burned ● Lap times ● Time inside, above and below heart rate limits If a speed and distance POD is used, the following information is also logged: ● Total distance ● Average cadence (Cadence POD only) ● Average and maximum speed ● Distance per lap ● Average speed per lap To view the logbook[...]

4.5 Using Training Effect Training Effect (TE) is a unique feature of your Suunto heart rate monitor that measures the real effect of a workout on your physical fitness. With Training Effect, you can be sure that your workouts have the intended result. There is a significant difference between heart rate zone (temporary training intensity) and Trai[...]

Description Result Training Effect Extremely high effect on aerobic performance if adequate recovery allowed; should not be done often Over-reaching 5.0 NOTE: It is important to note that the numerical TE values do not mean that a workout with a lower numerical value is somehow worse or less significant than a workout with a high value. Both are ne[...]

The countdown timer to the right of the TE target value indicates how much time remains for you to reach the target at your current heart rate (training intensity). NOTE: You can change the main view of TRAINING mode to show the current (achieved) Training Effect by keeping [View Back] pressed. Repeat to switch back to the heart rate view. To set t[...]

4.6.1 Heart rate limits Setting upper and lower heart rate limits for yourself can help you keep your exercising at the correct intensity. In the HR LIMITS menu, you can set the heart rate limits on or off, define the upper and lower limits, and turn the heart rate alarm on or off. Description Value Setting Heart rate limits feature: on or off on /[...]

NOTE: The heart rate limits are displayed with dashes on the left outer rim of the display if the limits are activated. Possible real life situation: Staying in the zone You want to have a good, tough training session today, so you set your heart rate limits to equal your Zone 3 limits and turn the heart rate limit alarm on. Your Suunto heart rate [...]

NOTE: The zone defaults follow the guidelines of the American College of Sports Medicine for exercise prescription. In the HR ZONES menu, you can turn on the zone feature, define zone limits, and turn tones on or off. When the zones feature and the tones are turned on, your device alerts you with a beep when you move from one zone to another. Descr[...]

TIP: If your heart rate varies significantly during training, for example, when running in hilly terrain, following your real-time average heart rate is better guidance than following zone limits. 4.7 Using intervals and warm-up Your Suunto heart rate monitor supports interval training, training with alternating periods of high exertion and recover[...]

Description Value Setting Interval 2: on or off on / off int2 Interval 2 duration: minutes and seconds 0'00 int2 Warm up: on or off on / off warm Warm up duration: minutes and seconds 0'00 warm To change interval and warm-up periods settings: 1.

6 USING TIME MODE TIME mode handles the time of day in two time zones: main time and dual time.
