<Note on usage>
This function can only be used in the northern hemisphere. However, you
may not be able to use it in regions in latitudes lower than the Tropic of
Cancer, depending on the season.
• To use this function, you need to be able to confirm the position of the
sun.
• To use this function, you need to set the watch's time to the local time
of the place where you are located.
• This function is merely a simple compass and cannot be used to
determine true direction.
Example: When wanting to know the direction of east at nine o'clock in the
morning. Refer to FIG. 1.
(1) Point the hour hand toward the sun.
(2) The position midway between the hour hand (nine o'clock) and twelve
o'clock points toward south, so turn the S on the rotating orientation ring to
line it up with the position of 10:30 on the dial.
(3) In this case, the direction in which E points (7:30) on the rotating orientation
ring is east.
