Compass Declination

Compass declination, also called ‘variation’ in mariners’ and aviators’ jargon, is the angle between where a compass needle points, referred to as ‘magnetic north’, and the true north pole. To set the compass declination, select the COMPASS mode and the DECLINAT menu. You can set the compass declination from magnetic north by pressing the x or z until the desired setting appears, then pressing { to set.

Note: If you notice an incorrect compass reading and your compass has been calibrated, you may need to set the compass declination for your area. Visit www.motorola.com or call Motorola for details on setting compass declination for your area.
