Each sport mode has a unique set of displays and views. You can read more about each
mode in Suunto Movescount under your watch settings. You can also shorten the list of
modes in your watch through Movescount.
3.28.1. Swimming
You can use your Suunto Spartan Trainer Wrist HR for swimming in pools or openwater.
When you use a pool swimming sport mode, the watch relies on the pool length to determine
distance. You can change the pool length as needed under the sport mode options before
you start swimming
Openwater swimming relies on GPS to calculate distance. Because GPS signals do not travel
under water, the watch needs to come out of the water periodically, such as with the freestyle
stroke, to get a GPS
fix.
These are challenging conditions for GPS, so it is important that you have a strong GPS signal
before you jump in the water. To ensure good GPS, you should:
•
Sync your watch with Movescount before you go swimming to optimize your GPS with the
latest satellite orbit data.
•
After you select an openwater swimming sport mode and a GPS signal is acquired, wait at
least three minutes before starting your swim. This gives the GPS time to establish strong
positioning.
