6.5.1 Compass calibration

The compass of the GPS watch must be calibrated:

 if the watch is used for the first time.

 if the compass will be used in a place, which is not identical to the place

in which the compass was calibrated.

 To calibrate the compass, go in the adjustment mode and select

„Settings“  „System“  „Compass“  „Calibrate”. Keep the GPS

watch parallel to the floor and rotate clockwise, until "Done" appears

on the screen.

6.5.2 Entry of declination

The GPS watch, as most of the magnetic compasses, shows toward the

magnetic North Pole. Any departure on a map however refers to the

geographical North Pole. An angle arises from here. This is called deviation or

declination.

To correct this declination, the deviation degree can be introduced. This

deviation degree is indicated on maps as plus Eastern deviation (E), Western

deviation minus respectively (V).
