4. Arahan Operasi

  1. Memegang Kompas: Hold the compass flat and level in the palm of your hand, away from any metallic objects or electronic devices that could interfere with the magnetic needle.
  2. Orienting Yourself: Allow the compass needle to settle. The red (or marked) end of the needle will point towards magnetic North.
  3. Reading the Dial: The compass features a rotating dial with degree markings (0-360) and cardinal directions (N, S, E, W). Align the 'N' on the dial with the North-pointing end of the needle to orient the compass to true North.
  4. Using the Glow Feature: To activate the glow, expose the compass to a bright light source (sunlight or artificial light) for a few minutes. The glow will be visible in low-light or dark conditions, allowing for easier readings.

5. Penyelenggaraan

  • Pembersihan: Lap kompas dengan kain lembut,amp cloth to remove dirt or smudges. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as they may damage the housing or clear casing.
  • Storan: Store the compass in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and strong magnetic fields (e.g., speakers, magnets, large metal objects) when not in use.
  • Pengendalian: While durable, avoid dropping the compass or subjecting it to extreme impacts, which could affect its internal components and accuracy.

6. Penyelesaian masalah

  • Jarum Tidak Mendap: Ensure you are holding the compass level and away from any magnetic interference. If the issue persists, gently tap the compass to free the needle.
  • Dim Glow: The glow feature requires exposure to light to charge. If the glow is dim, expose the compass to a bright light source for a longer period.
  • Bubble in Liquid: Small air bubbles may appear in the liquid-filled compass over time due to temperature changes. This is normal and generally does not affect accuracy. Large or persistent bubbles may indicate a seal issue; contact customer support if concerned.
