Aboutcorrectionofaltitude
Thealtimeter ofthisproduct calculatesbased ontheatmospheric pressure.Some errors
mayoccur bychangein atmosphericpressure andtemperaturechange dueto atmosphere
anddifferenceinelevation.Forthisreason,makeadjustmentsofaltitudeatpointswherethe
correctaltitudeisknownsuchasastartingpointofatrailorduringaclimb.
InformationonaltitudecanalsobesearchedonamaporthroughtheInternet.

※Whyisclimbingspeedrequired?
Itisextremelyimportanttoknowyourpaceduringclimbing.
Confirmationofclimbingspeed isanimportantindexto estimatewhetheritis possibletoclimb

Ingeneral, thetimerequired tocompletea trailisbased onclimbing speedof300 m/hasa
standard,however,climbingspeedwidelyvariesdependingonmountainprofile,weather,age,body
strengthandexperience.
Knowingyour averageclimbing speedishelpful tocalculate thetimerequired tocomplete the
