3.8.1 Calibrating compass

When you first start using Suunto EON Steel , the compass needs to
be calibrated. Suunto EON Steel displays the calibration icon when
you enter the compass view. Calibrate the compass by slowly
rotating the unit in your hand in large figure-8 loops. During the
calibration process, the compass adjusts itself to the surrounding
magnetic field.
