Q
Adjusting the altimeter
The absolute elevation reading is measured by means of the
change in air pressure. In order to ensure a measurement
that is as precise as possible, the altimeter has to be adjusted
from time to time. Make sure that you adjust the altimeter in
a place that lies at sea level (0 metres) or at a place whose
height above sea level you can enter as a reliable reference.
Imprecise details could lead to errors in later measurements.
