Calibrating the Compass
NOTICE
Calibrate the electronic compass outdoors. To improve heading accuracy, do not stand near metal objects or
objects that influence magnetic fields, such as vehicles, electronic devices, buildings, or overhead power lines.
When your device is connected to the mount, it uses GPS data to determine your compass heading. When you
remove the device from the mount, it uses a built-in compass to show your heading.
Each time you disconnect your device from the mount, you may need to calibrate the compass.
If you experience irregular compass behavior, for example, after moving long distances or after extreme
temperature changes, you can manually calibrate the compass to improve accuracy.
1 Disconnect the device from the mount and move away from objects that influence magnetic fields.
2 From the main menu, select > ABC > > Calibrate Compass.
3 Follow the on-screen instructions.
Group Ride
The Tread 2 device supports radio group rides with a Group Ride accessory, and mobile group rides with the
Tread app.
Radio group rides support location sharing, preset text messaging and, in some regions, voice communication.
All riders must have a Group Ride accessory and must remain within radio range of each other to send and
receive group ride information.
Mobile group rides support location sharing only. Riders in a mobile group ride must maintain an internet
connection on their phones to send and receive group ride information. Riders without a GPS device can create
or join a mobile group ride using the Tread app.
You can be in a radio group ride and a mobile group ride at the same time.
