C. Watch will then call for you to enter DECLINATION. Pressing HEADING will exit calibration

mode and leave watch set to measure magnetic north. Entering a declination value instead
will allow the watch to point to true north, by adjusting for the angle, which varies for dif-
ferent spots on the globe.

D. To set watch for true north, enter declination angle for your location from the chart below.

Press START to advance flashing TENS OF DEGREES, press MODE to select DEGREES, then
START to advance. Press MODE to select direction, then START to switch between E and W.
Press HEADING to exit calibration and save new values.

Finding Direction

A. Hold watch level relative to the horizon in any mode but ALARM. Press HEADING to display

compass heading indicated by red arrow on watch face (12 o'clock position). You may wish
to turn bezel around watch face to correspond to measured direction. Press HEADING again
to cancel heading display (if not cancelled, compass heading will display for ten seconds).

B. When pressing HEADING to obtain heading, watch may display HOLD TO CAL indicating cali-

bration is needed. You can recalibrate at your option; see instructions above.

*Some watch models have a leveling bubble above the 12 o’clock/N position to assist in

calibrating the compass. Watch is level when the bubble is centered in the lens.

If your watch is water-resistant, meter marking or (

) is indicated.
