If you move or travel with your S8 E SCAPE
to areas of different altitude, you will need to adjust the altitude compensation setting. Changes in altitude will affect the pressure delivered by the S8 E SCAPE .
You can use the Altitude setting (ALT) to specify the altitude range at which you are using your S8 E SCAPE . Select the S8 E SCAPE

Down keys until you see the setting option that you require.
There are four altitude settings to choose from:

•
4001–6000ft (1220–1828 m)
•
6001–8500ft (1829–2591 m).
For example, if you are at an altitude of 3107’ (947 m), your altitude compensation setting would be 2001–4000ft (610–1219 m), as 3107’ (947 m) falls within that range.
