Suunto 9 User Guide

Sunrise and sunset alarms

The sunrise/sunset alarms in your Suunto 9 are adaptive alarms based on your location. Instead of setting a fixed time, you set the alarm for how much in advance you want to be alerted before the actual sunrise or sunset.

The sunrise and sunset times are determined via GPS, so your watch relies on the GPS data from the last time you used GPS.

To set sunset/sunrise alarms:

  1. Press the middle button to open the shortcut menu.
  2. Scroll down to Alarms and enter by pressing the middle button.
  3. Scroll to the alarm that you want to set and select by pressing the middle button.

  5. Set minutes in the same way.
