SUUNTO OW222 Vertical Stainless Steel Adventure Watch
SAFETY AND REGULATORY INFORMATION
INTENDED USE
Suunto Vertical is a sports watch that tracks your movement and other metrics,
such as heart rate and calories. You can use your device as an optional diving
equipment while immersed in water to a maximum depth of 10 meters. This device
is not a dive computer or a standalone product for measuring any certified
scuba diving activity. Suunto Vertical is only for recreational use and not
meant for medical purposes of any kind.
OPTICAL HEART RATE
Optical heart rate measurement from the wrist is an easy and convenient way to track your heart rate. Best results for heart rate measurement may be affected by the following factors:
- The watch must be worn directly against your skin. No clothing, however thin, can be between the sensor and your skin.
- The watch may need to be higher on your arm than where watches are normally worn. The sensor reads blood flow through tissue. The more tissue it can read, the better.
- Arm movements and flexing muscles, such as gripping a tennis racket, can change the accuracy of the sensor readings.
- When your heart rate is low, the sensor may not be able to provide stable readings. A short warm up of a few minutes before you start the recording helps.
- Skin pigmentation and tattoos block light and prevent reliable readings from the optical sensor.
- The optical sensor may not provide accurate heart rate readings for swimming and freediving activities.
- For higher accuracy and quicker responses to changes in your heart rate, we recommend using a compatible chest heart rate sensor such as Suunto Smart Sensor.
- WARNING: The optical heart rate feature may not be accurate for every user during every activity. Optical heart rate may also be affected by an individual’s unique anatomy and skin pigmentation. Your actual heart rate may be higher or lower than the optical sensor reading.
- WARNING: Only for recreational use; the optical heart rate feature is not for medical use.
SAFETY
WARNING:
- Always consult a doctor before beginning a training program. Overexertion may cause serious injury.
- Allergic reaction or skin irritations may occur when products are in contact with skin, even though our products comply with industry standards. In such event, stop use immediately and consult a doctor.
- For safety reasons, you should never dive alone. Dive with a designated buddy.
- Freediving involves risks that are not obvious. There is always a risk of decompression sickness for all diving activity types and dive profiles. Suunto strongly recommends that you do not engage in any diving activity type without proper training and a complete understanding and acceptance of the risks. Always follow the rules of your training agency. Assess your own physical condition and consult a physician regarding your fitness before diving.
- This device is not for certified scuba divers. Recreational scuba diving may expose the diver to depths and conditions that tend to increase the risk of decompression sickness (DCS) and errors that may lead to serious injury or death. Trained divers should always use a dive computer developed for scuba diving purposes.
- Do not participate in freediving and scuba diving activities on the same day.
NOTE: Make sure you fully understand how to use your dive instrument and what its limitations are by reading all the printed documentation and the online user manual. Always remember that YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY.
