NOTES
The Earth Compass cannot be used while the handset is being
charged.
When using the electronic compass, orient the handset so its
keypad is horizontal. The direction measurement error increases
when the keypad of the handset is tilted.
Any of the following actions can create accuracy issues with the
electronic compass. If any of these occur, perform the calibration
as soon as possible.
Opening and closing the flip immediately after starting up the
electronic compass.
Using the handset near a strong magnet.
Leaving the handset for a long time in an area with extreme
temperature change.
Allowing the handset to become magnetized.
To calibrate the electronic compass,
hold the handset firmly and move the
handset in the shape of a large figure
eight as shown in the illustration to the
right for about five seconds.
Calibrate the electronic compass with the handset open before
using it with the handset open.
Calibrate the electronic compass with the handset closed before
using it with the handset closed.
The electronic compass uses the Earth’s magnetic field to
determine direction. The direction readings produced by the
electronic compass can be different from actual compass
readings due to environment and temperature conditions.
