The tempered scale and the traditional scale differ slightly in pitches. In particular, the major and minor thirds are far off, with the major being higher and the minor being lower for the tempered scale. Tuners use the tempered scale. I believe that the left arrow is where the major third (and minor sixth) for the traditional scale should tune. Ditto for the right arrow and the minor third (and major sixth).

In practice, I would ignore those arrows.
