COMPASS MODE

The WS4

™

watch includes an accurate digital compass that takes a reading

every second when engaged and shows the compass reading as a number and

a cardinal heading along with a virtual compass needle. You must calibrate the

compass prior to first use and it’s also a good idea to calibrate it periodically to

maintain more accurate readings. For more information, see Calibration Mode

on page 36.

Calibrating the Compass

When using the compass, it’s important to keep your wrist at a level, horizon-

tal position to help make compass readings more accurate.

For the most accurate readings, avoid calibrating the compass near large

metallic objects (such as electronics, cars, filing cabinets, and

anything else metal) since magnetic force in these objects may

interfere with the magnetic field and give you inaccurate

compass readings. Note that the Indiglo

night-light feature

does not work while calibrating the compass.

Prior to calibrating the compass, remove the watch from your wrist, hold it in

your hand and choose a declination angle from the table on the next page.

NOTE: At low temperatures, the display could appear sluggish. Refer

to page 9 for operating temperature range. Increase temperature

surrounding watch to resume normal operation.

NOTE: For more accurate temperature readings, try wearing the

watch outside your jacket or clipping it to your belt or pack (ideally

in an area not constantly exposed to the sun). You can also remove

the watch from your wrist and put in shade for 15 to 30 minutes.

For information on calibrating your weather icon see Calibration Mode on

page 36.
