8 NAVIGATION

8.1 Using GPS

Suunto Ambit2 S uses Global Positioning System (GPS) in
determining your current position. GPS incorporates a set of
satellites that orbit the Earth at an altitude of 20,000 km at the
speed of 4 km/s.
The built-in GPS receiver in Suunto Ambit2 S is optimized for wrist
use and receives data from a very wide angle.

8.1.1 Getting GPS signal

Suunto Ambit2 S activates GPS automatically when you select a
sport mode with the GPS functionality, determine your location, or
start navigating.
