Calibration
Because of changes in the surrounding magnetic field, the Suunto Vyper Air electronic
compass occasionally needs to be re-calibrated. During the calibration process, the
compass adjusts itself to the surrounding magnetic field and to tilting. As a basic rule,
you should calibrate the compass whenever it does not seem to operate properly, or
after replacing the dive computer's battery.
