What happens if the batteries are removed?
Removing the batteries from the Wayfinder
V700 erases all the information stored in
memory including the calibration information.
When you replace the batteries, you must
recalibrate the unit.
What is magnetic distortion?
Many things, such as metal objects and
electronics equipment, generate external
magnetic fields that can render a compass
inaccurate when in close proximity. The
Wayfinder V700 senses when there has been
a significant change in magnetic fields and
displays the “
DIST
” message in the top left
corner of the display. This may occur when
driving over a bridge, under an overpass, over
railroad tracks, or within close proximity to
something with a strong magnetic field such as
power lines. Once the vehicle has moved away
from the source of interference, the compass
will be accurate again. If the “
DIST
” message
is continuously displayed, it is usually a sign
that there has been a significant change in
magnetic fields and recalibration is necessary.
