Shortcuts:

The third row shows alternatively the bearing, speed, average speed or memory status. Change the displayed information with Stop/Cancel. You can select a shortcut from the Sailing or Racing Data display to replace the average speed.

Bearing (bea): Displays the bearing to the next waypoint in degrees.

Speed (spd): Displays the vessel’s speed in the selected

unit.

Average speed (avg): Display’s the vessel’s average speed in knots.

Memory status (mem): Displays the percentage of free memory space.

If the GPS is off, the shortcuts display the latest values when the GPS was on.

When Navigate is off but the GPS is on, the shortcut values refer to the starting point where the GPS had its initial fix.

NOTE: A rectangular indicator is displayed on the left side of the lower horizontal dotted line of the display when Navigate is on.

Navigation Data display

The Sailing, Navigation and Racing modes and the MOB function have special informa- tion displays that you can access from the main display of the respective mode. The Navigation data display shows either Waypoint information or a summary of the route. To activate the display, press Start/Data in the Navigation display.

When Navigation is on, the Navigation Data display shows Waypoint information on four rows:

Route: The first row displays the name of the route.

Waypoint: The second row displays the name and number of the waypoint being navigated. You can scroll the waypoints with the arrow buttons. Long press Enter to activate the selected waypoint. Suunto M9 begins displaying the naviga- tion data to the new waypoint. The active waypoint is indi- cated with reversed color symbol.
