The battery level indicator displays an estimate of the remaining battery level. The 
indicator value is obtained by referencing the current power consumption against the 
measured discharge state of the battery. The current power consumption varies 
depending on the function used. Therefore the indicator may show a lower value e.g. 
when using GPS than when only displaying time. When turning the GPS on and off, in 
some states during GPS usage and when unplugging the charger, the indicator 
reading may be unstable. This is normal and is caused by fluctuating current levels at 
these instances. For the best estimation for remaining battery level, turn off the GPS, 
move to time mode and wait a few minutes for the reading to stabilize.
2.1.3. Alarm symbols
Suunto X10 can display three different alarm symbols: Time, weather and altitude. 
When you set a time alarm, its symbol is displayed at the right side of the lower 
horizontal dot line. When you set the weather alarm, its symbol appears underneath 
the left side of the dot line. When you set the altitude alarm, its symbol appears on top 
of the left side of the dot line¨
2.1.4. GPS reception indicator
When the GPS is set on, the GPS reception indicator appears 
on the upper horizontal dotted line of the display. Once the 
GPS is on but does not have satellite reception, an empty, 
rectangular and blinking dot is displayed. When the GPS has 
a fix, 1 to 5 filled rectangular dots are displayed. The quantity 
depends on the reception quality. More dots represent better 
satellite coverage and signal reception.
