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 earth's 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 field of the earth, relative to other sources of magnetic
fields. 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, TV's, 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 and hold HEADING (from TIME OF DAY mode only)
until ROTATE WATCH TWICE appears in the display.
