cover facing up) in order to put the POD into pairing mode.

Paired
” or, if pairing failed, it returns to the
Pair a POD menu.
Your Suunto t6 will display either ‘” PAIRING COMPLETE ” or, if pairing failed,
“
NO DEVICES FOUND
” within 30 seconds.
If pairing fails, make sure that there are no active ANT transmitters such as HR
belts nearby and repeat steps 1 and 2.
After successful pairing, your heart rate monitor will display a new mode called
Speed/Distance. There you can view all the Speed and distance-related
information while you are on the move.
If you would like to use the Suunto t6 (serial number 50499999 or lower)
simultaneously with both the Bike POD and the Foot POD, Suunto offers a free
update of your Suunto t6. Please send your Suunto t6 and the Foot POD proof
of purchase to your nearest Suunto Service Center and you will be provided
with an update of your Suunto t6. Please remember to pay the postal costs.

4. USING YOUR FOOT POD
4.1. CONNECTION
To use your Foot POD, you must establish a connection between it and your
heart rate monitor each time you want to use your heart rate monitor with your
Foot POD.
1. Turn the Foot POD on by taking few strides.
2. In your Suunto t3 or Suunto t4 , enter Training mode or start the stopwatch.
In your Suunto t6 , select Connect in the Speed/Distance menu.
Your heart rate monitor informs you when the Foot POD has been found.
Suunto t3 or Suunto t4: If the connection fails, the message “Searching”
disappears from the bottom row of the display and the selected shortcut returns.
Suunto t6: If the connection fails,
”NO DEVICES FOUND”
is displayed on the
screen.
In this case, make sure that the Foot POD is active and try again. If the
connection still does not work, remove and reinstall the battery. If the red LED
blinks 3 times after reinstalling the battery, the connection is working. If the red
LED displays 6 quick blinks, you should change the battery. See Section 4.3.
“Replacing the battery”.
If the red LED burns continuously, the pod may require service.
4.2. CALIBRATION
To ensure that your measurements are accurate, you must first calibrate the
Foot POD using your heart rate monitor. Perform the calibration on an
accurately measured course, for instance on a 400m running track.
