Calibrate Speed

The speed sensor can be calibrated to compensate for inaccuracies. Be-

fore you change the setting, first calculate the percentage that the

speed is off. You will enter this percentage in a moment.
If, for example, you figure the sensor is reading 10 percent faster than

actual speed, you will enter – 10 in the calibration window. If the sen-

sor is reading 5 percent slower than true speed, you will enter + 5 in

the window.
