9 USING 3D COMPASS

Suunto Ambit2 S has a 3D compass that allows you to orient yourself in relation

to magnetic north. The tilt-compensated compass gives you accurate readings

even if the compass is not horizontally level.

The compass is a temporary display that needs to be activated.

To activate the compass:

1. Press [Start Stop] to enter the start menu.

2. Scroll to COMPASS with [Start Stop] and select with [Next].

NOTE: After 2 minutes in power saving mode the temporary display disappears.

COMPASS mode includes the following information:

●

middle row: compass heading in degrees

●

bottom row: toggle between the current heading in cardinal (N, S, W, E) and

half-cardinal (NE, NW, SE, SW) points, time and empty view with [View]

The compass will switch itself to power saving mode after one minute.

Reactivate it with [Start Stop].

For information on using compass during exercise, see Section 11.6.4 Using
