Start Line Function - Suunto Mariner User Manual

To begin the calibration:
1. PRESS the [Select] button twice when in the main compass mode. Field 1 displays the text "CMP". Field 3 displays
the text "CAL" (Fig. 24).
2. PRESS the [Select] button and hold in for 2 seconds. Located in Field 2, the text "PUSH" will begin to flash (Fig. 25).
3. PRESS the [-] button to start calibration.
4. In Field 2, 360° appears and the Outer Circumference displays all segments lit (Fig. 26). When this occurs, hold the
Wristop Computer level and start to slowly turn the device around a full circle in a level position. The direction of turning
does not matter. The lit segments will be turned off as the turning proceeds. When the first full circle is completed,
the instrument will inform the user within one minute of whether the calibration was successful displaying the text
"dOnE" in Field 2 (Fig. 27) or if the process needs to be repeated displaying "PUSH" and "-" in Field 2.
Note: The user may need to perform the rotating of the compass more than twice around for the calibration to be completed.
Note: If the text "FAIL" appears in Field 2 (Fig. 28), the battery should be removed and put back in before trying to proceed
with the calibration process. The removal of the battery will "reset" the unit.
5. Once the calibration is successful, PRESS the [Mode] button to accept the process and exit the calibration mode.
Note: It is important to hold the Wristop Computer level during the calibration process to ensure accuracy.
The compass calibration is complete.
