Bearing navigation

Bearing navigation is a feature that you can use outdoors to follow the target path for a location you see or have found on a map. You can use this feature stand alone as a compass or together with a paper map.

If you set the target distance and altitude while setting the direction, your watch can be used to navigate to that target location.

2. Select Bearing.
3. If needed, calibrate the compass by following the on-screen instructions.
4. Point the blue arrow on the screen towards your target location and press the middle button.
5. If you do not know the distance and altitude to the location, select No.
