BEFORE TRAINING 2.1. Putting on the heart rate transmitter belt The heart rate transmitter belt is an integral part of Suunto t1's functionality, so it's important that you know how to wear it correctly. We recommend that you wear the transmitter against your bare skin to ensure flawless operation.
Whenever you enter Training mode or start the stopwatch, your Suunto t1 automatically searches for signals from a heart rate belt. Once the device has found the signals, your heart rate will be displayed in the center of the screen. 2.1.1. Heart rate signal troubleshooting Although the heart rate transmitter belt can be used with gym equipment like treadmills and training bikes, using the belt near overhead power lines or some magnetic or electronic devices may cause interference with the belt's signal.
Long press the ENTER button in Time or Training mode to enter the Settings menu. 2 sec 2 sec NOTE Use UP and DOWN buttons to toggle between the following setting submenus: heart rate limits, heart rate zones, time/date, general and personal. Long press the ENTER button to exit the Settings menu. Remember that you can see where you are within the Settings menu by following the flashing bar in the navigational aid. 2.2.1.
Upper limit Lower limit Target heart rate When the Limit alarm is on, Suunto t1 gives you an alarm when your heart rate rises above the upper limit or drops below the lower limit. The alarm continues until you return to your target heart rate range. By checking your average heart rate you can adjust your training intensity to make sure the session is as effective as possible. 2.2.2. Heart rate zone settings In the Heart Rate Zone menu, you can define the 3 heart rate zones and set the tones on or off.
Heart rate zone Default setting Main benefit Zone 1 60 - 70% of maximum heart (Fitness Zone) rate Improves your basic endurance, aerobic fitness, and helps you in weight control (fat burning zone) Zone 2 70 - 80% of maximum heart (Aerobic Zone) rate Improves your aerobic fitness. This is the preferred zone if you are training for an endurance event.
2.2.3. Time/date settings In the Time/date menu, you can set the alarm, time, dual time, and date. Accept the settings with a short press of the ENTER button, which also moves you on to the next menu item. Adjust the alarm on/off setting with UP and DOWN buttons. Accept with ENTER button. Continue setting the alarm, time, dual time and date. 2.2.4. General settings In the General menu, you can set the button tones on or off and choose the units and format the information is displayed in.
Adjust the weight setting with UP and DOWN buttons. Accept with ENTER button. Continue setting your height, activity class, maximum heart rate, sex and birth date. NOTE See the table in Section 1.2, Activity class, for information on activity class descriptions. 3. TRAINING Once you have your Suunto t1 set up as you like it, it's time to get out and start training. For tips on how to maximize the effectiveness of your training, download Suunto Training Guidebook from www.suunto.com/training. 3.1.
After switching to Training mode, Suunto t1 displays two bars while it is seeking the HR belt signal. Instead of your heart rate, "00" is shown in the center of the display if no heart rate belt is found. 3.2. Stopwatch The stopwatch is activated by short pressing the START button in Training mode. It can be seen in the top row in Training mode.
While the stopwatch is running, you can take up to 99 lap times, the first 30 of which are stored in the memory, by short pressing the UP button. Pressing the UP button, when the stopwatch is running, stores the split time and displays it in the top row of the Suunto t1. It also displays the average heart rate and shows the lap time. After 3 seconds the display jumps back to the stopwatch. This number indicates the ongoing lap.
If you want to update your maximum heart rate, press the DOWN button. Pressing the BACK button takes you back to the Training mode without updating your maximum heart rate. NOTE Sometimes an excessive heart rate, much greater than 200 for example, can be caused by interference and therefore shouldn't be updated. See section 2.1.1 for information on possible sources of interference. 4.
Press UP, when stopwatch is not running, to view the summary of your training. Continue pressing the UP button to view the summary of your training: duration, calories, average and peak heart rate, time spent in and out of limits and zones, summary of each stored lap. Move back in summary using the DOWN button. Press the BACK button to exit. 4.2. Training totals In addition to the last training session, Suunto t1 stores the data recorded this week (Monday Sunday), last week, this month, and last month.
Press the UP button in Time mode to view the totals of your training. Pressing the ENTER button takes you through your training totals for this week: calories consumed, training time and time spent within and outside of each zone. In each display, you can use the UP and DOWN buttons to change between the view for this week, last week, this month and last month. Press the BACK button to move back to the previous display.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE Your Suunto t1 is a precision instrument. By following a few common sense points, you can maximize the life of your device. If your Suunto t1 does require servicing, you should take it to your nearest Suunto representative.
5.2. Water resistance Your Suunto t1 is water resistant up to 30m/100ft and the transmitter belt to 20m/66ft according to ISO 2281 standard (www.iso.ch). This means that you can use your Suunto t1 for swimming and other water sports activities but you must not use it for scuba diving or freediving. To maintain water resistance and to ensure that the warranty remains valid, we strongly recommend that you have all service, except for battery change, performed by authorized Suunto service personnel.
• Attach the buckle to the strap by placing the spring bars into the holes in the strap. In both sides of the buckle are holes for two different positions. This can be used for fine tuning of the strap length. Make sure that the spring bars are positioned straight in the buckle. 5.4. Replacing the battery Your Suunto t1 operates on a 3-Volt lithium cell, type: CR 2032. The life expectancy is approximately 12 months of operation with an average of 4 hours of training a week.
5.4.1. Replacing the battery of the Suunto t1 To replace the battery: 1. Use a coin to open the battery compartment on the back of your Suunto t1. Ensure that the O ring and all surfaces are clean and dry. 2. Remove the old battery. 3. Place the new battery into the battery compartment with the positive side facing up. 4. Slide the battery gently against the contact plate on the side, ensuring that it does not break or bend out of place. 5.
NOTE Replace the battery with extreme care to ensure that your Suunto t1 remains water resistant. Careless battery replacement may void the warranty. NOTE Heavy use of the backlight will significantly reduce battery life. 5.4.2. Replacing the battery of the heart rate belt The average expected battery life of the transmitter belt is 300 hours of use in ideal operating temperatures. If your Suunto t1 does not receive a signal when the transmitter belt is active, you might need to replace the battery.
NOTE We recommend that you replace the battery cover and the O ring simultaneously with the battery to ensure that the transmitter remains clean and water-resistant. Replacement covers for the belt are available with replacement batteries. 6. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS General.
