COMPASS CALIBRATION

IMPORTANT: Watch must be calibrated before using to find directions!

This product incorporates the magnetic sensor technology of PRECISION NAVIGATION, INC., Mountainview, CA.

A compass works with the Earth’s magnetic field; therefore you must not be in or near large metallic objects (such as automobiles, bridges, etc.) or objects that give off electromagnetic radiation (such as TV sets), which could interfere with the watch’s calibration or use.

You cannot calibrate or obtain accurate readings from inside buildings, trains, or airplanes.

Typical accuracy of wrist-worn instruments is within +/- 10 degrees. To optimize accuracy, an optional two-step calibration is recommended, and discussed in further detail below. In cali- brating and taking subsequent headings, it is important as with all compasses, to maintain a level plane relative to the earthÕs horizon. Performing calibration or taking a heading when the watch is not level can result in large heading errors.* Care must also be taken to avoid areas which may exhibit higher than normal concentrations of hard and soft iron. This is especially true given the relatively weak magnetic Þeld of the earth, relative to other sources of magnetic Þelds. Failure to do so can result in inaccurate headings. Whenever a heading value is suspect, a new calibration should be performed. It is also recommended that calibration be performed in the intended area of use, or when the watch has been stored for an extended length of time.

Care should be taken to avoid storing the watch near any source of magnetism (computers, appliances, TVÕs, etc.), as the watch can take on a magnetic charge and render subsequent headings inaccurate. When the watch is suspected of having taken on a magnetic charge, a new calibration should be performed.

Applying good maintenance procedures, periodic calibration, and observing the guidelines as outlined above will help to insure headings are accurate to within the limitations of the imme- diate environment.

A. To calibrate for magnetic north, press HEADING (from TIME OF DAY mode only) once to view direction. (If the watch has not yet been calibrated, you will see HOLD TO CAL instead of direction.) Press and hold HEADING until ROTATE WATCH TWICE appears in display
