’C º’ (COMPASS)
Note: The compass needs to be calibrated before it is used. Calibration is made in the menu CAL. It is also
necessary to adjust the difference between true (geographic) north and magnetic north in the SET menu.
Metal framed glasses can cause disturbances in the compass function. If you are wearing metal framed glasses,
calibrate the instrument with the glasses on (see CAL below). Also note that surrounding magnetic fields can
cause disturbances in the built-in compass, as with all compasses.
•
Important! All compasses use and are affected by Earth’s magnetic fields
•
All compasses are sensitive to disturbances in the surroundings caused by for example the following:
heavy metals, household appliances, computers, high voltage power lines, etc.
Push the button one time. The bearing is displayed. Use the two linear lines in the display as your aim. Hold the

position.
