conserves battery life. Press C (COMPASS) at any time to
keep the compass on for another 20 seconds.
The compass may be activated while the chronograph is
in use. The 4th center hand merely switches operation
temporarily. The upper and lower hands continue to show
the chronograph time and all chronograph functions are
available through buttons A (START/STOP) and B (FLY-
BACK/RESET).
NOTE: During compass operation, the second hand
moves in two-second increments. Also, when the
compass is activated, the upper and lower hands may
shift position slightly, returning to their proper positions
when the compass is deactivated. This operation is
normal and yields the most accurate compass reading.

COMPASS USE
Once the compass is activated, there are two typical
ways to use it.
Which way am I headed? Hold the watch so that 12
o'clock is in direction of your travel. Turn the compass ring
until the 4th center hand is pointing to north on the ring.
Your heading is the direction on the ring at 12 o'clock.
Which way should I go? If you know the direction you
want to go (e.g., NE), turn the compass ring until that
direction appears at 12 o'clock. Hold the watch so that
you are facing 12 o'clock. Then, turn your body until the
4th center hand points to north on the compass ring. You
are now facing the direction you want to go.
