1. Turn the Foot POD on by taking few strides.
2. Set your heart rate monitor to Training mode and connect the Foot POD
with it.
3. Start running at your usual pace. When you cross the starting line, start the
stopwatch.
4. Run a distance of 800–1000 m (about 0.500–0.700 miles) at your usual pace.
(for example, two laps on a 400-meter-track).
5. Stop the stopwatch when you reach the finish line.
6. In your Suunto t3 or Suunto t4, select Calibrate in Speed and Distance
mode settings.
In your Suunto t6, select Calibrate in the Speed/Distance menu.
7. Select Foot POD.
8. Adjust the measured distance (for example, 0.988 km) to the real covered
distance (for example,1.000 km) with UP/DOWN and press ENTER to finish
the calibration.
9. The device calculates and displays the calibration factor on the second row of
the display. Alternatively, you can provide the calibration factor manually
using the UP/DOWN buttons.
NOTE: If you are training at different paces, you will reach the best accuracy
by using different calibration factors for slow and fast running. For marathons,
we recommend calibrating the Foot POD at your target marathon pace.
4.3. REPLACING THE BATTERY
When the battery level is low, the LED displays 6 quick
blinks when you activate the Foot POD. After that, the
battery will have power for approximately 5 hours.
Replace the battery when it runs low or when the battery
life significantly differs from the operational times
mentioned in this manual.
NOTE: For more information on estimated battery life
expectancy, see Section 6. Technical Specifications.
There may be differences in the operation time of Suunto
Foot POD depending on type of battery, operating
temperature and use.
NOTE: If you switch on the Foot POD in room
temperature and take it out to the cold, battery consumption will increase. If the
battery is already low, this may result in it emptying quickly.
To replace the battery:
1. Remove the POD from the clip.
2. Open the battery compartment cover with a coin.
3. Remove the old battery.
4. Replace the battery and close the battery compartment.
5. Attach the POD to the clip.
NOTE: Replace the battery with extreme care to ensure that your Foot POD
remains water-resistant. Careless battery replacement may void warranty.
