1. GETTING STARTED WITH SUUNTO M3

This instruction manual guides you to use all the features of the Suunto M3, a wristop

computer designed for competetive boat racing.

1.1. GETTING FAMILIAR WITH SUUNTO M3

The Suunto M3 has two main displays: the Time and Timer displays. You can switch

between the displays by long pressing (more than 1 seconds) the MODE button. The

picture below shows the Suunto M3 button assignments:

CHRONO

MODE

ENTER

UP (START/STOP)

DOWN (SYNC)

1.2. FIRST STEPS WITH SUUNTO M3

Taking the Suunto M3 into use the first time is

simple: all you need to do is set the current date

and time:

1. While the Suunto M3 is displaying time, press

the ENTER button to open the menu.

2. Use the UP or DOWN button to select the

Time item from the menu.

3. Press ENTER to select the highlighted item.

4. Again, select Time and press ENTER.

5. Adjust the full hours by pressing the UP/

DOWN buttons.

6. Press ENTER to accept and to move forward.

7. Press MODE to return to the time view.

After setting the time, select Date from the menu

and repeat the above.

Your Suunto M3 is now ready for use.

2. USING RACE TIMER

The Suunto M3 helps you to optimize the timing for the race start so that you can

cross the start line at the right time. This helps you get ahead of your opponents and

avoid turbulence from the other boats in front of you.

TIP: While waiting for the race start, you can use the Suunto M3 chronograph

to estimate the time to reach the start line by taking practice starts.

The race timer helps you to follow the official race start countdown.

1. Long press the MODE button to switch to the Timer view.

2. Press ENTER and select Start time.

3. Enter the countdown time with the UP/DOWN buttons. For example, if the official

signal is given 5 minutes before the start, enter 5.

4. At the official signal, press UP to start the countdown on the Suunto M3.

TIP: You can set the timer to repeat the countdown. This is useful if there are

several race starts, for example, for different boat classes. Long press ENTER

to turn the repeat on/off. This can be done both when the timer is running or

when it is stopped. After the start, long pressing DOWN turns the repeat off and

allows you to view the actual race time.

TIP: You can stop the timer with a long press of the UP button. Now press UP

to start the timer again or long press UP to reset the timer if the start is

recalled/rerun for some reason.

5. When the countdown timer reaches 00:00, Suunto M3 starts displaying the elapsed

race time. Long press UP to stop the race time.

TIP: You can also set the countdown timer to start automatically to count to

predefined date and time. To set the timer, press ENTER and select Count to

from the menu.

2.1. SYNCHRONIZING THE COUNTDOWN TIMER

Suunto M3 allows you to synchronize the timer to the official countdown even after

the countdown has started. This is very useful if you are distracted when the official 5

minute signal is given, causing a delay in starting the timer in Suunto M3. Once the

timer is running, synchronizing is done as follows:

1. Wait and be prepared to the next official signal (such as the 4 or 1 minute signal).

2. At the signal, immediately press the DOWN button.

The timer jumps downward to the full minute and continues the countdown.

TIP: By default, pressing DOWN makes the timer jump downward to the

nextfull minute (for example, from 03.50 to 03.00 and from 03.20 to 03.00).

You can also set Suunto M3 to synchronize to the closest full minute (for

example, from 03:50 to 04:00). See section 6.2 for how to do this setting.

2.2. ADDING A SPLIT TIME MARK DURING THE RACE

You can store split times, for example, when you pass a mark during the race. The

stored times can be viewed after the race with the Logbook.

1. While the race time is running, press ENTER and select Add mark to store a split

time.

2. The new split time and the time elapsed from the previous split time are shown on

the display briefly.

3. After the race, press ENTER and select Logbook to view the stored marks.

NOTE: Up to 10 separate logs can be stored in the Suunto M3 memory. When

the memory is full, a new log automatically replaces the oldest log in the

memory.

2.3. USING THE BUTTON LOCK

In order to prevent accidental off synchronization of the race timer, you can activate or

switch off the Suunto M3 button lock by pressing first the ENTER and then the

CHRONO button within 3 seconds.

Note that the key lock only disables the following actions: starting the race timer,

stopping the countdown or race time and synchronizing the countdown.

3. DETERMINING FAVORED END OF START LINE

Before a race starts, the wind direction may have shifted and is no longer aligned with

the starting line. The Suunto M3 helps you to determine the favored end of the start

line.

1.Head to wind and check your bearing

from the boat compass.

Example: bearing to wind is 15°.

2.Adjust the Suunto M3 rotating bezel so

that the upwind bearing is parallel to the

black triangle on the inner ring.

15°
