Compass question ( X-lander )

[Jonaso]

Hello everybody! ( Sorry about my english )

I have just bought a new Suunto watch. X-lander! I have two questions that i could`t see in the manual. When i push the + button in the compass mode field 3 goes over to a second counter. Hvat is this for? and how do I stop it? Second question, when I push the - button the hole compass lock itself. What is this function for?`And how do i get it off. I could not read anything of this in the manual.

Thank you guys

	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.

When your compass locks, that is the Bearing tracking mode. Re-read and understand which buttons scroll through sub-modes, and which buttons are used to start/stop functions. I am not sure what you are referring to with the second counter, you can have both the Timer and the Stopwatch running at the same time perhaps If you have any questions call 1800 543 9124

I dont think you understand me, so i took two pics of the clock in the compass mode. Again, my question is: What is the counter ( seconds) in field 3 when i push the - button. Look at the pictures. When you are in the "normal" mode in the compass mode the clock is in Field 3. I hope you understands now! I wanna know what the second counter is for! Thanks
