1. INTRODUCTION The Suunto X3HR Wristop Computer is a reliable high precision electronic instrument that is intended for recreational use. Outdoor enthusiasts and endurance athletes who enjoy sports such as hiking, running and biking can rely on the Suunto X3HR's accuracy. The Suunto X3HR features three main modes: TIME, TRAINING and MEMORY. Each mode provides several sub-functions further enhancing the usefulness to its owner.
1.2. CARE AND MAINTENANCE 1.2.1. Care of the Suunto X3HR Only perform the procedures described in this manual. Never attempt to disassemble or service your Suunto X3HR. Protect your Suunto X3HR from shocks, extreme heat and prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Avoid rubbing the Suunto X3HR against rough surfaces as this may scratch the face. If not in use, your Suunto X3HR should be stored in a clean, dry environment at room temperature.
mitter belt (20m / 66 ft). This indication, however, does not correspond to a diving depth but refers to the pressure at which the water overpressure test was conducted. This means that you cannot dive to a depth of 30m/100ft with your Suunto X3HR wristop computer or 20m / 66 ft with the transmitter belt. Rain, shower, swimming and other normal exposure to water will not affect its operation but the buttons shall not be pressed if exposed to water in any circumstances.
To replace the battery: 1. Insert a coin into the slot located on the battery compartment cover on the backside of your Suunto X3HR. 2. Turn the coin counterclockwise until it is aligned with the open position marker. 3. Remove the battery compartment cover and the O-ring, and discard them. Ensure that all surfaces are clean and dry. 4. Remove the old battery carefully. 5. Place the new battery into the battery compartment under the metal contact clip, with the positive side facing up. 6.
1.5. BATTERY REPLACEMENT OF THE TRANSMITTER BELT The transmitter belt operates on a 3-Volt lithium cell, type: CR 2032. The transmitter belt’s average expected battery life is 300 hours of use in ideal operating temperatures.When the Suunto X3HR is not receiving a signal but the transmitter belt is active, a change of battery might be necessary. Refer to section 2.4.2 for other factors that can interfere with a correct signal. To change the battery 1.
2. HOW TO USE YOUR SUUNTO X3HR 2.1. DISPLAY When your Suunto X3HR leaves the factory, it displays the rows of the Time mode’s main display—date, time and weekday. In addition to mode-specific information, the Suunto X3HR display includes several symbols. 2.1.1. Function symbols The function symbols indicate that either a function has been activated (such as Alarm) or something needs to be done (battery symbol). The function symbols are: Heart: Active when the device is receiving the heart rate signal.
2.2. BUTTONS 2.2.1. Short and long press The buttons may have different functions depending on how long you press them. The ordinary press or short press means that the button is pressed quickly. The long press means that the button is pressed for more than 2 seconds. 2.2.2. START/STOP button Short press • Starts and stops the Stopwatch in the Training mode. Long press • Resets the Stopwatch time displays (top and bottom rows) in the Training mode. 2.2.3.
Long press • Goes deeper into the functional hierarchy of the chosen shortcut. The top-level function is displayed on the bottom row of the mode’s main display. • Returns to the main display and accepts the current selections. 2.2.4. ARROW UP/LIGHT button Short press • Scrolls to the next mode. • Changes the selected unit or setting to a different one (e.g. On/Off). • Increases the selected numeric values. • Navigates to the next adjusting/selecting state (displayed on the bottom row).
2.3. NAVIGATING IN THE FUNCTIONS The function menus are organized under the modes. When you select a mode, its main display appears. In each mode you can display different sets of information on the bottom row. These alternatives are called shortcuts. They all include several shortcut-specific settings. You can change the shortcuts in each mode with the SET button. When you long press SET in the mode's main display, you enter the function menu of the active shortcut.
