Calibrating the Electronic Compass

Calibrate the electronic compass outdoors when you

first use the GPSMAP 60CSx. To ensure continued

accuracy, calibrate after installing new batteries,

after moving more than 100 miles (160 km), or

experiencing a temperature change greater than 68º F

(20º C). The accuracy of the compass is also affected

if the unit is not held level or you are near objects that

affect magnetic fields, such as cars or buildings.

To calibrate the electronic compass:

1. Press

MENU to open the Compass Page

Options menu.

2. Highlight

Calibrate Compass, and press

ENTER to open the Calibration Page.

3. With the

Start button highlighted, press

ENTER, and follow on-screen directions for

holding and turning the unit.

A “Just Right,” “Too Fast,” or “Too Slow”

message appears notifying you to adjust your

turning speed, as needed. Hold the unit level

while turning.

A “Calibration Successful” message appears

when finished.

If a “Calibration Failed” message appears,

repeat the process.

4. Press

ENTER to return to the Compass Page.

Hold the unit

level and turn

slowly.
