1 INTRODUCTION TO SUUNTO COMFORT BELT en Suunto Comfort Belt is a wireless heart rate transmitter belt that forms an integral part of the functionality of a variety of Suunto wristop computers and Peripheral Observation Devices.

WARNING: People who have a pacemaker, defibrillator, or other implanted electronic device use the transmitter belt at their own risk. Before starting the initial use of the transmitter belt, we recommend an exercise test under a doctor’s supervision. This will ensure the safety and reliability of the pacemaker and transmitter belt when being used simultaneously. Exercise may include some risk, especially for those who have been sedentary.
Practical tips If the heart rate belt does not seem to be sending heart rate data: 1. Ensure the contacts (electrodes) are wet. 2. Adjust the belt so that it fits tighter against your chest. 3. Re-enter training mode. 4. Change the battery. 5. If your skin tends to remain dry during the workout, you can improve the contact by using electrode gel.
