Stop Watch (Chrono); Memory Feature; Compass (Comp); Calibrating The Compass - Crivit 1-LD4657 Indicaciones Sobre Su Utilización Y Su Seguridad

Stop watch (CHRONO)

Press MODE to select the feature mode. Press SET to start or stop the stop watch.
Press SEL while the stop watch is running to record a lap time. Up to 99 lap times
can be recorded.
Press and hold SET to reset the stop watch.

Memory feature

Press SEL while the stop watch is stopped to show the fastest lap (BEST-LAP)
on the display. Press SET to show the other lap times.
Please note: The memory feature can only be used if at least one lap time was
recorded.
Exit memory mode by pressing MODE.

Compass (COMP)

Repeatedly press MODE to select the feature mode.
Hold the compass on a level plane to enable a precise directional indication.
One of two display layouts can be selected:
Display layout with large digits:

To save power the compass will deactivate itself - after 3 minutes in idle state and
after 5 minutes during continuous use. „OFF" will appear in the third row of the
display.
Press SET to reactivate the compass.
Please note:
immediate vicinity of magnetic objects such as other
compasses.
If the error message "ERROR" is shown continuously, the
compass must be recalibrated.

Calibrating the compass

When must the compass be calibrated to correct external influences?
All compasses (analogue and digital) use the magnetic field of the earth and are
sensitive to different types of interference from external influences such as the
magnetic distortions caused by large metal objects, electrical and electronic
appliances, computers, transformers and power lines.
To achieve precise results, the compass must be calibrated if
• The error message " ERROR " (for magnetic distortions) appears continuously;
• The numerical reading in degrees has an error of more than 10 degrees;
• The device is used within a vehicle for the first time. In this case the magnetic
distortions cause by the vehicle must be compensated.
How is the compass calibrated?
Press and hold SEL to enter calibration mode. Press SET to start the calibration. The
display will show two rotating arrows. Hold the watch on a level plane (in sufficient
distance to metal objects, electrical or electronic devices, computers and power
lines) and slowly turn it clockwise twice
should be performed at a constant speed. Each turn may not take less than 20
seconds and may not take longer than 60 seconds. Complete the calibration
immediately after performing the turns by pressing SET.
The compass must not be used in the
