3.4.3 Calibrating the Compass
You should calibrate the compass if it does not seem to work well, for example, when
it displays the wrong compass heading or the heading changes too slowly. Strong
electromagnetic fields, such as electric lines, loudspeakers and magnets, can affect
the compass operation. Therefore you should calibrate the compass if your Suunto M9
has been exposed to these fields.
NOTE: Calibrate the compass before using it for the first time, and before you leave
for an extended outdoor activity.
NOTE: Remember to hold the Suunto M9 level in the plane of calibration during the
calibration sequence.
