Suunto Ocean - Points of Interest; Adding and Deleting Pois

NOTE: If you are navigating a route that crosses itself, such as a figure-8, and you make
a wrong turn at the crossing, your watch assumes you are intentionally going in a
dierent
direction on the route. The watch shows the next waypoint based on the current, new
direction of travel. So, keep an eye on your breadcrumb trail to ensure you are going the
right way when you are navigating a complicated route.
Turn-by-turn navigation
When creating routes in Suunto app, you can choose to activate turn-by-turn instructions.
When the route is transferred to your watch and used for navigation, it will give you turn-by-
turn instructions with a sound alert and information on which way to turn.
8.5. Points of interest
A point of interest, or POI, is a special location, such as camping spot or vista along a trail, you
can save and navigate to later. You can create POIs in Suunto app from a map and do not
have to be at the POI location. Creating a POI in your watch is done by saving your current
location.
Each POI is defined by:
•
POI name
•
POI type
•
Date and time created
•
Latitude
•
Longitude
•
Elevation
You can store up to 250 POIs in your watch.
8.5.1. Adding and deleting POIs
You can add a POI to your watch either with Suunto app or by saving your current location in
the watch.
If you are outside with your watch and come across a spot you want to save as a POI, you can
add the location directly in your watch.
To add a POI with your watch:
1. Swipe up or press the lower button and select Map.
2. Press the lower button to open Navigation options.
3. Select Your location and press the middle button.
4. Wait for the watch to activate GPS and
find your location.
5. When the watch displays your latitude and longitude, press the upper button to save your
location as a POI and select the POI type.
6. By default the POI name is the same as the POI type (with a running number after it). You
can edit the name later in Suunto app.
Deleting POIs
You can remove a POI by deleting the POI from the POI list in the watch or removing it in
Suunto app.
