provides magnetic north heading references which are automatically determined from your current
position; True: provides headings based upon a true north reference; Grid: provides headings based
on a grid north reference (and is used in conjunction with the grid position formats described on the
previous page); User Mag Var: allows you to specify the magnetic variation at your current position
and provides magnetic north heading references based upon the variation you enter.
To set a user-defi ned magnetic variation:

WARNING: If ‘User Mag Var’ is selected, you must periodically update the magnetic

calculate and update the magnetic variation at your present position. Failure to update
this setting may result in substantial differences between the information displayed on
your unit and external references, such as a magnetic compass.

Variation and User Magnetic Variation. ‘Auto Mag Var’ will
automatically calculate magnetic north for your location.
In areas with high iron deposits or other factors affecting mag-
netic variation, you may wish to select ‘User Mag Var’ and enter
a specifi c variation between true north and local magnetic north.
