To skip setting the declination, press the ADJ button to return to the Compass Mode. Declination Setting Declination adjusts the compass for the local magnetic fields. In some areas, magnetic declination can be considerable, so it is a good idea to check for declination on your map or on the Internet. To adjust the compass declination angle, go to Compass Mode and hold down ADJ button for 3 seconds, and the Compass Homing Mode is displayed. Press MODE button until you get into Declination Setting Mode displayed as ‘DEC’. Press UP or DOWN button for desired value then just press ADJ button to save settings and exit the mode. Declination is sometimes measured as degrees positive and negative. Degrees East are considered positive and Degrees West are considered negative. For example, to change from 3 degrees East (positive) declination to 3 degrees West (negative) press the DOWN button until 3W appears. Self Homing Mode Allows you to preset a reference bearing which tells the Compass to alert you to the direction you should be heading.

TROUBLE SHOOTING If the Cardinal points (N, NE, E, SE etc.) on your compass blink - Try holding the compass LEVEL using the bubble level as a guide. The Cardinal points may also blink when the Compass encounters magnetic interference from the surrounding areas. The Cardinal points blink because the Compass is unable to measure bearings accurately. If this does not fix the blinking, please recalibrate your compass. (Go to page 7 for Compass Calibration.) Remember to keep the Compass away from metal objects which may cause magnetic interference. Double check that your declination is properly set (In general, zero degrees should be the default setting). Three dashes are displayed – Your compass has gone into a "sleep" mode to save batteries. Press COMP to reactivate the compass. Can’t turn unit off – This unit is designed to be constantly on and the batteries will last about a year assuming normal usage. Reset compass - If, during operation, an external electrodischarge occurs near the compass, the unit may exhibit erroneous readings. To solve this problem, the watch must be reset and recalibrated. Note: The watch is automatically reset when the battery is removed. If your wristtop goes into a test mode after inserting the battery – You will need to re-install your battery. Remove battery. Wait 10 seconds then carefully re-insert the battery making sure that it is well placed in the battery compartment. Close battery door. You will know that your wristtop has gone into test mode – If you see the LCD segments around the display turning on one-by-one and moving in an counter-clockwise direction. After the test mode is completed, your wristtop will return to normal. The test mode will not harm your wristtop's normal operation.
