1. Hold MENU.
2. Select Sensors & Accessories > Altimeter.
3. Select an option:
   • To calibrate automatically from your GPS starting point, select Auto Cal., and select an option.
   • To enter the current elevation manually, select Calibrate > Enter Manually.
   • To enter the current elevation from the digital elevation model, select Calibrate > Use DEM.

   NOTE: Some devices require a phone connection to use DEM for calibration.

   • To enter the current elevation from your GPS starting point, select Calibrate > Use GPS.
