1. INTRODUCTION
ThisistheUser'sGuideforSuuntot6wristopcomputer. It containsbriefintroductions
to all the modes, and guidelines on where and when to use their functions. It also
contains more detailed instructions on how to use the most important functions.
However, it does not include all the information on Suunto t6, and the information it
contains is not always given in full detail. In other words, the User's Guide should
be used alongside the User's manual. Therefore you should first read the User's
manual carefully before using the User's Guide. You can find the User's manual on
the CD-ROM supplied with your Suunto t6.

NOTE: This User's Guide refers to speed and distance (Spd/Dst) functions.
These are only available with separate Spd/Dst accessories. The references to
