clockwise for 1-2 turns. The rotation should be completed in a slow and steady practice
(around 20s per one turn).
3)
When the turning is completed, press “SET” button to enter the Magnetic Declination
mode
4) The “DEC” indicator is shown on the display. The digit will start flashing.
5) Press “COMPASS” button to increase the angle (from -90 to 90), until the desire magnetic
declination has appeared.
NOTE:
Check section “3.4 Magnetic Declination at Major Cities” to get the magnetic declination of the
city nearest to your current position. Input this angle into the compass during the calibration
Example 1:
Compensate the magnetic declination for Wellington in New Zealand (22-E), 22 in the
magnetic declination setting.
Example 2:
Compensate the magnetic declination for Lisbon in Portugal (5-W), select -5 in the magnetic
declination setting:
Note
: 1. the compass must be kept in a level position when in use.
2. Compass readings are easily affected by disturbing sources of magnetism, so the
compass should always be used in the open air.
