RECEIVING THE TIME

When your Suunto n6

HR

receives a broadcast signal, it should automatically receive

the correct time from an atomic clock. This happens even if you have not yet
activated the MSN Direct service. As long as your Suunto n6

HR

keeps on receiving

the signal, you do not need to set the time. The time is accurate to a few thousands of
a second, and it automatically adjusts for daylight saving time and leap years. In
addition, your Suunto n6

HR

automatically switches to different time zones as you

travel from place to place.
NOTE: When you turn on your Suunto n6

HR

, it may take a few minutes to receive the

time from an atomic clock.
If you are in an area where your Suunto n6

HR

cannot receive a signal, you can set the

time manually. You can also change the time display from a 12-hour clock to a 24-
hour clock, and you can override the automatic time zone setting. For more details,
see Chapter 6. Settings.
