1 INTRODUCTION Thank you for choosing Suunto t4d as your training companion. Suunto t4d is a high-precision heart rate monitor designed to make your training as beneficial and enjoyable as possible. Suunto t4d provides heart rate zone training, accurately measures the calories you burn, and records your training history.

3 DEFINING MAIN SETTINGS Before you start training, you need to define GENERAL and PERSONAL settings. They ensure accurate measurements and calculations. You are prompted to define the main settings the first time you wake up the device (by pressing any button).
Description Value Setting Foot POD units: kilometers per hour, distance in kilometers, miles per hour, or distance in miles km/h , /km , mph , /mi Foot Bike POD units: same options as Foot POD km/h , /km , mph , /mi Bike GPS POD units: same options as Foot POD km/h , /km , mph , /mi Gps To change GENERAL settings: 1.
3.2 Personal settings Through the PERSONAL settings, you tune your Suunto heart rate monitor according to your physical traits and activity. Many of the calculations use these settings, so it is important that you are as accurate as possible when defining the values.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 as needed. 5. Press [Start Stop] to exit. TIP: Weigh yourself regularly and update the value in your settings. This helps keep the training calculations accurate. 3.2.1 Maximum heart rate Once you have entered your date of birth, your device automatically sets the maximum heart rate ( MAX HR ) using the formula 210 – (0.
4 USING SUUNTO COACH Suunto Coach is your personal training advisor. It generates an ideal training program of target Training Effect levels and training session durations for the next five days. The recommendations are based on your current fitness level and your recorded training history.
rate at a certain level throughout the whole workout. With Training Effect you just need to reach the desired target once during training. Description Result Training Effect Improves recovery ability; in longer sessions (over one hour) also improves basic endurance.
TIP: Training Effect is an advanced feature and can help you in many ways. More details about TE can be found in the Suunto Training Guide, available for download at suunto.com/training. The TE level is shown as a view in TRAINING mode. This view also shows you how much time is left (at your current training intensity) to reach the next TE level.
NOTE: You cannot lock the buttons while in the Training Effect view. Switch to another view to lock them (then switch views again as desired). Heart beat analysis technology producing Training Effect is provided and supported by Firstbeat Technologies Ltd.
or decreases the level, adapting according to your actual (recorded) training history and your current activity class. NOTE: Suunto t4d also increases or decreases your activity class according to your training history. In both cases, you are asked to confirm the change before the setting is modified.
Suunto Coach automatically updates the training routine to respond to your actual training. It notices if the Training Effect of your previous workouts was above or below target and modifies the goal of the next session accordingly.
5 USING TRAINING MODE The TRAINING mode handles measurement of all your training activity. NOTE: Even though both Suunto t4d and the transmitter belt are water-resistant, the radio signal does not carry in water, which makes the communication between Suunto t4d and the transmitter belt impossible.
WARNING: If you have a pacemaker, defibrillator, or other implanted electronic device, you use the transmitter belt at your own risk. Before using it, we recommend an exercise test with your Suunto heat rate monitor and belt under a doctor ’ s supervision.
5.3 During training Your Suunto heart rate monitor has a number of visual and audio indicators to help guide you during training. This information can be both helpful and rewarding. Here are some ideas on what to do while training: ● Lock the buttons to avoid accidentally stopping your log recorder.
● Average and peak heart rate ● Calories burned ● Lap times ● Time inside, above and below heart rate limits If a speed and distance POD is used, the following information is also logged: ● .
5.4.2 Viewing training totals Your Suunto heart rate monitor can store your training sessions and summarize the data according to weeks and months. The available time periods are: ● THIS WEEK : curr.
5.5 Measuring your training intensity Training with heart rate monitors is traditionally based on heart rate zones. The intensity of your training is determined by the time you spend in each of three zones. All Suunto heart rate monitors support zone training.
Description Result Training Effect Improves aerobic performance if repeated 2-4 times a week. No special recovery requirements. Improving 3.0-3.9 Rapidly improves aerobic performance if repeated 1-2 times a week. Requires 2-3 recovery sessions (TE 1-2) per week.
5.6.1 Heart rate limits Setting upper and lower heart rate limits for yourself can help you keep your exercising at the correct intensity. In the HR LIMITS menu, you can set the heart rate limits on or off, define the upper and lower limits, and turn the heart rate alarm on or off.
NOTE: The heart rate limits are displayed with dashes on the left outer rim of the display if the limits are activated. Possible real life situation: Staying in the zone You want to have a good, tough training session today, so you set your heart rate limits to equal your Zone 3 limits and turn the heart rate limit alarm on.
NOTE: The zone defaults follow the guidelines of the American College of Sports Medicine for exercise prescription. In the HR ZONES menu, you can turn on the zone feature, define zone limits, and turn tones on or off. When the zones feature and the tones are turned on, your device alerts you with a beep when you move from one zone to another.
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.
Description Value Setting Interval 2: on or off on / off int2 Interval 2 duration: minutes and seconds 0'00 int2 Warm up: on or off on / off warm Warm up duration: minutes and seconds 0'00 warm To change interval and warm-up periods settings: 1.
6 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. 6.1 Pairing a POD To use SPEED AND DISTANCE mode, you first need to pair your Suunto heart rate monitor with a Suunto POD.
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. 6.2 Autolap and speed limits With the autolap feature, you can define laps in distance instead of time (interval training).
3. Accept the value and move to the next setting by pressing [Mode]. 4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 as needed. 5. Press [Start Stop] to exit. Like heart rate limits, you can turn on the speed limits feature and define the upper and lower speed limits for yourself.
To change speed limits and pause settings: 1. In SPEED AND DISTANCE mode, enter the menu ( SET ) and scroll with [Lap +] until you reach SPEED . 2. Enter the setting with [Mode] and set the value using [Lap +] and [Light -]. 3. Accept the value and move to the next setting by pressing [Mode].
TIP: The GPS POD is listed in the CALIBRATE menu, but the calibration has no effect on the GPS POD. Use this calibration setting if you have, for example, two Bike PODs for different bikes. You can pair one of them as GPS POD and use the calibration in the same way as you normally would with a Bike POD.
7 USING TIME MODE TIME mode handles the time of day in two time zones: main time and dual time. In ALARM , TIME and DATE menus, you have the following settings: Description Value Setting Alarm feature.
Possible real life situation: Knowing the time at home You are traveling abroad and you set the dual time to be the time at home. The main time is the time at your current location. Now you always know the local time and you can quickly check what time it is at home.
8 GENERAL FEATURES 8.1 Backlight You activate the backlight by pressing [Light -]. The backlight turns off automatically. If you want to use the backlight when changing settings, you need to activate it before entering the settings. The backlight will re-activate whenever a button is pressed.
TIP: We recommend you lock the buttons, for example, after you have started a training session or are storing the device in a travel bag. 8.3 Sleep mode You put your Suunto heart rate monitor to sleep to extend battery life or to erase the recorded training history.
9 TROUBLESHOOTING Your Suunto heart rate monitor uses high frequency transmission to prevent reading disturbances.
