You can also remove the battery and then insert it again. Also make sure the compass
remains level during calibration—otherwise the calibration may fail.
If the calibration continues to fail, contact the authorized Suunto service.
NOTE: The level symbol is not shown if the compass is calibrated when the heart rate
monitor is active.
Setting the compass declination
You can compensate for the difference between true north and magnetic north by
adjusting the compass declination. The declination can be found, for example, in the
topographic maps of your local area.
To set the compass declination:
1. In the Function menu, scroll to Compass with the arrow buttons and press Suunto.
2. In the compass menu, move to
Declin with the arrow buttons and press Suunto. The
first row of the next window is activated.
3. Select the correct option (Off/East/West) with the arrow buttons and press
Suunto.
The degree field is activated.
4. Set the degrees with the arrow buttons. The initial value is either 0.0° or the value
accepted when last setting the declination.
5. Press
Suunto. You return to the compass menu.
