COMPASS MODE
IMPORTANT Although the compass has been calibrated
during the manufacturing process, it is highly recommended
to calibrate the compass before first use to take into account
location factors which may affect the compass.
For more accurate readings, it is strongly recommended to
calibrate the compass whenever outdoors.
The compass should be calibrated:
• Before first use.
• After the battery has been replaced.
• Before you leave for an extended outdoor activity.
• Whenever it is exposed to strong magnetic sources,
extreme cold, or you suspect that other environmental
conditions have affected the compass readings.
• If you notice that the compass is not showing the
direction correctly.
ABOUT THE COMPASS
The compass shows the bearing in degrees due North
together with 16 cardinal / ordinal points. The outer
circumference of the display consists of 16 segments that
graphically show the bearing. The last lit segment indicates
North as shown below.
