Calibrate - Important - Do Not Skip
The unit stores magnetic data and automatically calibrates
its digital compass; however, if the unit cannot
provide correct heading information due to environment
change (for example, near a metal structure),
then it is recommended to manually calibrate the unit. It is
also recommended to manually calibrate the unit for
first-time use.
Note: The digital compass may be affected by
bridges and power lines—move away from such
when using the unit.
