Tips for the best results of speed measurement
•
The average speed of a run corresponds very well with the real average speed
as long as the measured slope is close to the average angle of the slope.
• Because of the calculation algorithm, Suunto S6 usually records the top speed on
the steepest part of the slope. If this part is clearly steeper than the measured
average slope angle, the recorded top speed is higher than the real top speed. If
you are more interested in measuring the correct top speed than the average
speed, use the angle of the steepest part of the slope.
• If you want to compare speeds with your friends, make sure that you all have the
same slope angle before the run.
3.6.2. Use
With the Use function you can define whether the air pressure measurement is used
to set the altitude or to represent the weather conditions. (For more information, see
page 29.)
To select either Altimeter or Barometer use:
1. Press
Suunto in the main display to access the function menu.
