3. IMPORTANT The measurement functions built into the 0GKF5 are not meant to substitute professional measurement or industrial precision devices Values produced by this device should be considered as reasonable representations only The product s baro compensation technology treats signi cant i e 1mb change in air pressure within 15 minutes changes in air pressure as altitude changes and smaller air pressure variance as barometric pressure changes To ensure optimal performance of your product follow the below guidelines Initial Calibration Upon activation of your device use an altitude benchmark topographical map or Internet reference to set your initial altitude Frequent Altitude Calibration During Use For maximum accuracy it is strongly recommended that the unit be calibrated daily More frequent calibra tion may be needed in times of changing weather Because the device uses barometric pressure to determine altitude it is important to calibrate the device to a known altitude value Objects such as trail signs or topographical maps can be used as reference sources for altitude values The 0GKF5 carabineer is not designed for mountain climbing Always make sure to use a professional carabineer when mountain climbing L L Bean will assume no responsibility for any injuries or fatalities arising from improper use of the carabineer L L Bean assumes no responsibility for any loss or any claims
4. RUE NORTH CALIBRATION When you do not know the declination angle the true north calibration function can be used to compensate for the difference between magnetic and true north All you need to know is the direction of true north this can be found from landmarks in your immediate vicinity Setting the true north calibration makes the compass reading more accurate To set True North calibration 1 Press and hold COMPASS to enter settings mode 2 Press ALT or BARO to navigate to North mode 3 Press TIME to con rm and move to the next setting 4 Press ALT or BARO to change setting The setting options are as follows ON OFF point to true north 5 Press TIME to con rm If the declination angle is turned ON the True north function will automatically turn itself OFF and vice versa TIP Press COMPASS anytime to quickly exit SPECIFICATIONS Real time clock 12 24 hour with hour minute second Thermometer measuring range 10 C to 60 C 14 F to 140 F Resolution 0 1 C 0 2 F Power 2 x CR2032 lithium batteries Operating temperature 5 C to 50 C 23 F to 122 F Storage temperature 20 C to 70 C 4 F t o 158 F PRECAUTIONS To ensure you use your product correctly and safely read these warnings and the entire user manual before using the product Use a soft slightly moistened cloth Do not use abrasive or corrosive cleaning agents as these ma
