to take a pressure reading. This allows the unit to continue to build an
accurate pressure history even when you're not actively using it.
There are two ways to enable Sleep Mode. If you're viewing the Digital
Data display, simply press
MENU and select E NABLE S LEEP M ODE

press ENT .

When the iFINDER is in Sleep Mode, you can return to normal operation
by pressing
PWR . You can also use the Instant-On Compass feature to
briefly display the compass reading, without reactivating the entire unit.
