9 USING ALTI & BARO MODE
In ALTI & BARO mode you can view the current altitude or barometric pressure.

9.1 How Alti & Baro works
To get correct readings with ALTI & BARO mode, it is important to understand
how Suunto Ambit2 calculates altitude and sea level air pressure. Suunto
Ambit2 constantly measures absolute air pressure. Based on this measurement
and reference values, it calculates altitude or sea level air pressure.
CAUTION: Keep the area around the sensor free of dirt and sand. Never insert
any objects into the sensor openings.
