1 INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing Suunto t3c as your training companion. Suunto t3c is a high-precision heart rate monitor designed to make your training as beneficial and enjoyable as possible. [. . . ] TIP: If your heart rate varies significantly during training, for example, when running in hilly terrain, following your real-time average heart rate is better guidance than following zone limits.
3. 7 Using intervals and warm-up
Your Suunto heart rate monitor supports interval training, training with alternating periods of high exertion and recovery. When you use the intervals and warm-up, the log recorder view option in TRAINING mode becomes a countdown timer. Use this view to follow how much time is remaining for your current interval. Once you have started the training session, the countdown timer resets itself as each interval passes. When you are training with intervals, INT1, INT2 or WARM is shown before the countdown time to tell you which interval you are on. The lap indicator on the screen tell you how many intervals in total you have done, for example, int1 (lap1), int2 (lap2), int1 (lap3), int2 (lap4) and so on. Setting int1 int1 int2 int2 warm warm Value on / off 0'00 on / off 0'00 on / off 0'00 Description Interval 1: on or off Interval 1 duration: minutes and seconds Interval 2: on or off Interval 2 duration: minutes and seconds Warm up: on or off Warm up duration: minutes and seconds

To change interval and warm-up periods settings: 1. In TRAINING mode, enter the menu (SET) and scroll with [Lap +] until you reach
INTERVAL.

2. 5.
Enter the setting with [Mode] and set the value using [Lap +] and [Light -]. Press [Start Stop] to exit.
TIP: If you want to use intervals with equal time for exercise and rest, just turn on and define interval one (INT1). Your heart rate monitor will use that time for each lap (interval).

4 USING SPEED AND DISTANCE MODE
The SPEED AND DISTANCE mode becomes available after you have paired a speed and distance POD with your Suunto heart rate monitor.
en
4. 1 Pairing a POD
To use SPEED AND DISTANCE mode, you first need to pair your Suunto heart rate monitor with a Suunto POD. In TRAINING mode, enter the menu (SET) and scroll with [Lap +] until you reach
PAIR A POD.
2. Press [Mode] to get to the first setting and select the POD type using [Lap +] and [Light -]. NOTE: Before you (re)pair your POD or belt, you need to first reset the device by removing the battery and putting it in backwards (positive side down). Then replace the battery normally.
25
TIP: If you have paired a Cadence POD, you can switch between speed and cadence as the main view in SPEED AND DISTANCE mode by keeping [View Back]pressed.
4. 2 Autolap and speed limits
With the autolap feature, you can define laps in distance instead of time (interval training). When autolap is turned on (and your speed and distance POD is activated), your Suunto heart rate monitor shows total distance, average lap speed, and lap time for each lap. NOTE: When using the autolap feature, it is very important to calibrate your speed and distance POD accurately. Value on / off 0000 Description Autolap feature: on or off Distance: lap distance according to selected units in GENERAL settings
To change autolap settings: 1. In SPEED AND DISTANCE mode, enter the menu (SET) and scroll with [Lap +] until you reach AUTOLAP. Enter the setting with [Mode] and set the value using [Lap +] and [Light -]. Like heart rate limits, you can turn on the speed limits feature and define the upper and lower speed limits for yourself. TIP: This includes an autopause feature that, when activated, will stop your session when very slow speed is detected while using your Suunto speed and distance POD.
