automatically into Declination Setting Mode. If Calibration is unsuccessful, the Cardinal Points
will blink and you will have to repeat the previous 4 steps again. To skip setting the declination,
press the ADJ button to return to the Compass Mode.

Declination Setting

Declination adjusts the compass for the local magnetic fields. In
some areas, magnetic declination can be considerable, so it is a good
idea to check for declination on your map or on the Internet. To
adjust the compass declination angle, go to Compass Mode and hold
down ADJ button for 3 seconds, and the Compass Homing
Calibration Mode is displayed. Press MODE button until you get
into Declination Setting Mode displayed as ‘DEC’. Press COMP/+
or BARO/- button for desired value then press ADJ button to save
settings and exit the mode. Declination is sometimes measured as
degrees positive and negative. Degrees East are considered positive
and Degrees West are considered negative. For example, to change
from 3 degrees East (positive) declination to 3 degrees West (negative) press the BARO/- button
until 3W appears.

Self Homing Mode

Allows you to preset a reference bearing which tells the Compass to
alert you to the direction you should be heading. Go into Compass
Mode and press COMP/+ button to display compass homing. To
adjust homing bearing, press and hold ADJ button for three
seconds. Press COMP/+ button or BARO/- button to adjust to
desired bearing setting. Pressing COMP/+ or BARO/- will increase
or decrease bearing by increments of ten. A single push of COMP/+
or BARO/- moves bearing by 1 degree. When done, press ADJ to
return to Homing Mode. To return to Compass Mode press
COMP/+ button.

To operate the compass in Homing Mode go into the Compass Mode first, then press the
COMP/+ button again to get into Homing Mode.

The main reading displays the actual bearing and the lower reading shows the ‘home’ bearing. The
segments on the circumference show the difference between the two bearings, which can be used
to redirect you to stay on course.
