Altimeter
The altimeter feature estimates your altitude based upon
atmospheric pressure. You can also use the altimeter to display
a relative change in height from one point to another.

Setting the Altimeter Level
Because the altimeter display is based upon atmospheric pressure, it is only an
approximation of altitude above sea level. Therefore, it’s important to set the altimeter level to
the correct altitude (if you know it) each time you head outdoors. Or, you can set your starting
level to
0
so that the next altimeter display is the change in altitude relative to your starting
point.
To set the altimeter level, select the
ALTIMETR
mode and the
SETLEVEL
menu. Press
x
or
z
to
set the altimeter level to the correct height or press the
