the location and time. Therefore, you should periodically check the correct value from up to date sources and always set the
declination according to your location when using the compass. For more information on declination, see www.nokia.com/
phones/5140/compass.
While using the compass, hold the phone horizontally by using the bubble level in the top left corner of the phone. The
compass deactivates and goes into standby mode after a certain time to save power; press
