battery replacement on vector  I have recently changed the battery on my vector and to my horror have lost the instructions. A lthough i have reset all the functions from memory i can't remember how to calibrate the compass. When i try i get the fail message. Can any one point me in the right direction, if you'll parden the pun.   |  |  |  | Compass |  | Compasses are sensitive, absolutely crucial instruments to precision navigation. The earth's magnetic field, inclination, and your longitude and latitude all influence the horizontal plane of a compass needle. As a result, compasses are balanced for different geographical zones. Suunto Compasses overcome this limitation to traditional compasses by using a simple 'Two Zone System'. With a Suunto Compass, the only 'balancing zones' are the northern and southern hemispheres. In addition to this innovation, certain Suunto Compasses come equipped with useful features like luminous needles and marks, centimeter/inch scales, magnifying glasses, clinometers, sighting notches, and more. | |  |  |  |  | |
