The angular difference between Magnetic North Pole and True North Pole is 
called magnetic declination. Its magnitude (in units of degrees and minutes) 
and direction (East or West) are dependent on the location of device. 

3.

 

For users who intend to perform accurate navigations, device must be 
adjusted to compensate magnetic declination. Please refer to following section 
Compass Calibration for more details.

Most topographic maps display 
Magnetic North Pole or information 
about magnetic declination. Please 
refer to chart below for information 
about magnetic declination at major 
cities.
