The rotating compass ring can be used in the Northern Hemisphere only.
In areas at a latitude
lower than the tropic of Cancer, it may not indicate the directions properly depending on the season.

Please use the rotating compass ring by checking the position of the sun.

Before using the rotating compass ring, it is necessary to set the hour hand to the current time of
your area.
