3.1 3D distance
By default, Suunto Ambit3 Vertical takes both elevation gain and
loss into account when measuring distance. This gives you a more
realistic distance measurement when you are exercising in hilly or
mountainous terrain. In this scenario, 3D distance is greater than 2D
distance.
2D < 3D

In most cases you can leave this setting as it is. However, if you are
using 3rd-party software to analyze your tracks, check how the
track distance is calculated. If the calculation is using 2D distance,
you may want to deactivate 3D distance in your watch.
To deactivate 3D distance:
1. While in a sport mode, keep [Next] pressed to enter the options
menu.
2.
Scroll to
ACTIVATE
with [Light Lock] and press [Next].
3.
Scroll to
3D distance
and press [Next] to switch to 2D distance.
4. Keep [Next] pressed to exit.
