1.2. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
1.2.1. Care of the Suunto X3HR
Only perform the procedures described in this manual. Never attempt to disassemble
or service your Suunto X3HR. Protect your Suunto X3HR from shocks, extreme heat
and prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Avoid rubbing the Suunto X3HR against
rough surfaces as this may scratch the face. If not in use, your Suunto X3HR should
be stored in a clean, dry environment at room temperature.
The Suunto X3HR can be wiped clean with a lightly moistened (warm water) cloth. If
there are stubborn stains or marks, you can apply mild soap to the area. Do not
expose the Suunto X3HR to strong chemicals such as gasoline, cleaning solvents,
acetone, alcohol, insect repellents, adhesives and paint, as they will damage the
unit's seals, case and finish. Make sure the area around the sensor is kept free of dirt
and sand. Never insert any objects into the sensor opening.
1.2.2. Care of the Transmitter Belt
Wash the transmitter regularly with mild soap and water after each use. Rinse with
pure water; dry thoroughly and carefully.
Store in a cool dry place. Never store the transmitter wet. Moisture keeps the elec-
trodes wet and transmitter activated thereby shortening the battery life.
Do not bend or stretch the transmitter; this may damage the electrodes.
1.3. WATER RESISTANCE
Suunto X3HR and the transmitter belt are tested with ISO (International Organization
water-resistant. In addition to the term ‘water-resistant’ Suunto X3HR is marked with
an indication of a test overpressure given as a depth in meters (30m/100ft) and trans-
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

mitter belt (20m / 66 ft). This indication, however, does not correspond to a diving
depth but refers to the pressure at which the water overpressure test was conducted.
This means that you cannot dive to a depth of 30m/100ft with your Suunto X3HR
wristop computer or 20m / 66 ft with the transmitter belt.
Rain, shower, swimming and other normal exposure to water will not affect its opera-
tion but the buttons shall not be pressed if exposed to water in any circumstances.
NOTE: X3HR wristop computers and transmitter belts must not be used for diving.
1.4. BATTERY REPLACEMENT
Suunto X3HR operates on a 3-Volt lithium cell, type: CR 2032. The life expectancy is
approximately 12 months in the Time mode.
A low-battery warning indicator is activated on the display when approximately 5–15
percent of the battery capacity is still available. When this occurs, you should replace
the battery. However, extremely cold weather may activate the low battery warning
indicator even though the battery is still fully operational. If the battery warning indica-
tor is activated in temperatures above 10°C (50°F), replace the battery.
NOTE: Heavy use of the backlight, altimeter, compass and heart rate monitor will sig-
nificantly reduce battery life.
You can replace the batteries yourself as long as you do it properly to avoid any leak-
age of water into the battery compartment or computer. Always use original battery
replacement kits. (They include a new battery, battery lid and O-ring.) You can pur-
chase the battery kits from official Suunto retailers.
NOTE: When replacing the battery, also replace the battery lid and O-ring. Never use
the old ones.
NOTE: Change the battery at your own risk. Suunto recommends you to have the
batteries changed in official Suunto services.

To replace the battery:
1. Insert a coin into the slot located on the battery compartment cover on the backside
of your Suunto X3HR.
2. Turn the coin counterclockwise until it is aligned with the open position marker.
3. Remove the battery compartment cover and the O-ring, and discard them. Ensure
that all surfaces are clean and dry.
4. Remove the old battery carefully.
5. Place the new battery into the battery compartment under the metal contact clip,
with the positive side facing up.
6. With the O-ring in the correct position, replace the battery compartment cover and
turn it with the coin clockwise until it is aligned with the closed position marker. Do
not press onto the battery compartment cover while turning it with a coin.
NOTE: Perform battery replacement with extreme care to ensure that your Suunto
X3HR remains water resistant. Careless battery replacement may void warranty.

1.5. BATTERY REPLACEMENT OF THE TRANSMITTER BELT
The transmitter belt operates on a 3-Volt lithium cell, type: CR 2032.
The transmitter belt’s average expected battery life is 300 hours of use in ideal oper-
ating temperatures.When the Suunto X3HR is not receiving a signal but the transmit-
ter belt is active, a change of battery might be necessary. Refer to section 2.4.2 for
other factors that can interfere with a correct signal.
To change the battery
1. Insert a coin into the slot located on the battery compartment cover on the backside
of the transmitter belt.
2. Turn the coin counterclockwise until it is aligned with the open position marker, or
even slightly further for easy opening.
3. Remove the battery compartment cover. Ensure that the O ring and all surfaces are
clean and dry. Do not stretch the O ring.
4. Remove the old battery carefully.
5. Place the new battery into the battery compartment with the positive side facing up.
6. With the O ring in the correct position, replace the battery compartment cover and
turn it with the coin clockwise until it is aligned with the close position marker.
NOTE: You should change the battery cover and the O ring simultaneously with the
battery to ensure that the transmitter remains clean and water resistant. Replacement
covers are available from Suunto as accessories.

2.4. HEART RATE MONITOR AND TRANSMITTER BELT
2.4.1. Activating the heart rate monitor
To activate the heart rate monitor:
1. Attach the transmitter to the elastic strap.
2. Adjust the strap length to fit snugly and comfortably. Secure the strap around your
chest, below the chest muscles. Lock the buckle.
3. Raise the transmitter a little off your chest and carefully wet the grooved electrode
areas on the backside.
4. Check that the wet electrode areas are firmly against your skin and the logo is in a
central upright position.
5. Wear the Suunto X3HR as you would wear an ordinary watch.
NOTE: You should wear the transmitter against your bare skin to ensure flawless
operation. However, if you wish to wear the transmitter over a shirt, moisten the shirt
well under the electrodes.
2.4.2. Electromagnetic interference
Disturbances may occur near high voltage power lines, traffic lights, overhead lines of
electric railways, electric bus lines or trams, televisions, car motors, bike computers,
some motor driven exercise equipment, cellular phones or when you walk through
electric security gates.
2.4.3. Warnings
Persons who have a pacemaker, defibrillator, or other implanted electronic device use
the heart rate monitor at their own risk and it is recommended they undergo an exer-
cise test under a doctor's supervision before using the heart rate monitor for the first
time. This will ensure the safety and reliability of the pacemaker and heart rate moni-

tor when being used simultaneously.
Exercise may include some risk, especially for those who have been sedentary. We
strongly advise you to consult your doctor prior to beginning a regular exercise pro-
gram.
It is best to position the Wristop computer within 3 feet or 1 meter of the transmitter.
Ensure no other transmitters are within that range; signals from other transmitter(s)
can cause an incorrect readout.
Repeated kinetic shock to the Suunto X3HR may cause an incorrect heart rate read-
out, and should be avoided.
2.4.4. The Suunto X3HR and transmitter belt usage in water
Heart rate measurement in water is technically demanding for the following reasons:
• Pool water with a high-chlorine content and seawater may be very conductive and
the electrodes of the transmitter may get short-circuited; the transmitter unit cannot
detect the ECG (electrocardiogram) signals.
• Jumping into the water or strenuous muscle movement during swimming may
cause water resistance that shifts the transmitter on the body to a location where it
cannot pick up the ECG signal.
The ECG signal strength varies depending on the individual’s tissue composition.
People have more problems with heart rate measurement in water than elsewhere.

3.3. TRAINING MODE
3.3.1. Main display
The main display of the Training mode has three rows:
Stopwatch overall running time/split time
The top row displays the overall running time/split time.
When you start the stopwatch with START/STOP, this row
displays the overall running time from the start. However, if
you press ARROW DOWN/LAP when the stopwatch is run-
ning, the time elapsed since the start is displayed for 3 sec-
onds. After this the overall time is displayed until you press
ARROW DOWN/LAP again or stop the stopwatch with
START/STOP.
If the stopwatch is not active, this row shows either the last time measured with the
stopwatch or 0.00,0 (default display) if you have reset the stopwatch.
The overall time is displayed in minutes, seconds and tenths of a second. However, if
the measured time is more than one hour, it is displayed in hours, minutes and sec-
onds.
Heart rate
The middle row displays the heart rate. A heart symbol that flashes according to HR
is also displayed on the left side of the HR value (digits). If the connection to the trans-
mitter belt is not established within 5 minutes after navigating to the Training mode,
this row displays zeros.
Shortcuts
The bottom row displays alternatively the Overall/Lap time, Stopwatch/Timer, the Alti-
tude, the Avg. heart rate or HR relative to set HR limits (if the Stopwatch is activated

24
and the HR limits are on). If the Stopwatch is not activated and the HR limits are off,
the HR limits are displayed instead of the last two mentioned above. Switch between
these with SET.
• Overall/Lap time, Stopwatch/Timer: When you start the stopwatch with START/
STOP, this time measurement is identical to the one on the top row. When you
press ARROW DOWN/LAP, the time elapsed since the last press of the button is
displayed. (However, if you have not pressed ARROW DOWN/LAP previously, the
time displayed here is the same as on the top row, and the lap number is 1).
The number of laps is displayed on the left side of the time value (with a smaller font
than the running time). When you stop the stopwatch with START/STOP, the lap time
also stops running and remains to display the number of laps and the time of the last
lap.
When you reset the stopwatch by long pressing START/STOP, this display is also
reset and shows 0.00,0 (default value). The maximum number of laps/splits stored in
one training is 10. After the 10th lap/split, no more values are stored in the memory.
Although the lap/split values are displayed as before, the lap number indicator just
displays - -.
If the interval timer is set on (and at least one interval value is set), this row displays
the interval time in a countdown style. So, for example, if the interval is set to 3.00,
this row shows time running backwards from three minutes and when it reaches zero,
it starts again from the set interval. The number of repetitions is shown on the left side
with smaller digits. This countdown procedure is activated when you start the stop-
watch with START/STOP.
All these actions can/will be performed even when this shortcut is not displayed.
• Altitude: This displays the current altitude based on the air pressure changes after
your latest Altitude value definition. The altitude is displayed in the format of your

choice (m/ft).
• Avg. heart rate: This displays the average HR (measured from the start of the
stopwatch). The value is updated in real time throughout the training.
• HR relative to set HR limits: A graphical indicator displays what the current HR is
in relation to the set heart rate limits. The indicator is displayed as a bar and a
scale. If the heart rate limits are off, this shortcut is not available.
3.3.2. Stopwatch
Stopwatch is one of the three shortcuts that can be seen on the bottom row of the
Training mode’s main display. Short press SET to scroll to the Stopwatch shortcut.
When it is visible, you can access its functions by long pressing SET. Here is a list of
the functions and instructions on how to use them.
Interval
This setting is used to activate/deactivate the Interval, that counts the intervals you
have set (maximum two different time intervals) and alarms you when the time has
run out and the new interval begins. The alarm tone is different from the HR limits
alarms.
To set the Interval On/Off:

3.4. MEMORY MODE
When you use Suunto X3HR for the first time and thus no memory files are stored in
the memory, all the numeric values of the memory files are replaced with - -, and
there are no lap displays. You can still browse through the memory files with the
arrow buttons.
3.4.1. Main display
The main display of the Memory mode has three rows:
Total time of the measured training session: The top row
displays the total time of the training in minutes, seconds
and tenths of a second. (Or in hours, minutes and seconds if
the measured training has lasted more than one hour.)
Average Heart rate: The middle row displays the average
heart rate during training.
Identification of the recorded training session: The bot-
tom row displays the date and time of each training session
stored in the memory. (The time is the starting moment of the stopwatch.) The maximum
number of training sessions that can be stored in the memory is 8. When the memory is
full and you store a new training session, the oldest session is erased from the memory.
To view a specific training session:
1. Short press SET to scroll to the desired training session.
2. Long press SET to choose the training session. The Date/Time of the training is acti-
vated and the following summary displays can be viewed with ARROW UP/LIGHT.

row displays the heart rate at the time of the lap/split recording. The top row dis-
plays the split time. The displays that follow the number 4 are similar. There are
as many displays as there are lap/splits recorded (maximum 10).
• Last display: The middle row displays the text End. The bottom row displays the
date and time when the training session ended.
3. Long press SET at any time to stop navigating through the summary displays.

ing session you just investigated is displayed on the bottom row.

file that is displayed at the moment.
NOTE: A training session cannot be seen in the memory until the stopwatch has been
switched off.

when the stopwatch is active.
NOTE: You cannot change the main modes with the arrow buttons when you browse
through the memory summary displays. First you have to long press SET to return to
the main display, and then the main mode navigation functions normally.

4. SUUNTO X3HR SELF-TEST PROCEDURE
This chapter describes the Suunto X3HR self-test procedure used for maintenance
and testing purposes. The test does not benefit the regular user in any way so you do
not need to perform it. The test is only described here because it is possible to
activate it by accident and therefore it is necessary to know how to get back to the
normal display.
So if you at any time see all the symbols on the display at the
same time, you have activated the self-test procedure.
Follow the instructions below (from step 2) to get back to the
normal operation.
To perform the self-test procedure
1. Press and hold all 4 keys at the same time for 5 seconds.
The device displays all the possible segments of the LCD.
2. Press ARROW UP/LIGHT. The device starts to count
down from 4 to 0. After the countdown is finished the top
and middle rows display 5 zeroes.
3. Press ARROW DOWN/LAP. The message “TEST EPM” is displayed on the bottom
row and the device emits a long beeping sound. Then the message “EPM-OK” is
displayed on the bottom row.
4. Press SET. A set of numbers appears on the top and middle rows.
5. Press START/STOP. The device displays the Time mode’s name and switches to
the Time mode.
NOTE: The self-test procedure resets all the settings and clears the memory.
