6. Valid for barometer version only
The following features are only valid if your Suunto 9 has a built-in barometer.
6.1. Outdoor insight
Suunto 9 constantly measures absolute air pressure using the built-in pressure sensor. Based
on this measurement and your altitude reference value, it calculates altitude or air pressure.
CAUTION: Keep the area around the air pressure sensor holes on the left-side of your
watch free of dirt and sand. Never insert any objects into the holes as this may damage the
sensor.
Swipe up or press the lower button to view the current altitude and barometric pressure.
Tap the display to view the current temperature.
Swipe left or press the middle button to switch between altimeter and barometer trend
graphs.
Be sure to have your altitude reference value set correctly (see 6.1.1. Altimeter). The altitude of
your current location can be found from most topographic maps or major on-line map services
such as Google Maps.
Changes in local weather conditions aect altitude readings. If local weather changes often,
you should reset the altitude reference value regularly, preferably before starting your next
journey.
TIP: While in the altimeter or barometer graph view, keep the middle button pressed for
quick access to the outdoor settings where you can adjust the reference value.
