To alternate the temperature reading between
Fahrenheit and Celsius
Press the display switch above 3 seconds, less than 6
seconds until the display blinks ÉF and ÉC.
Press the display switch to toggle between the Fahrenheit
and Celsius readings within 5 seconds.
After 5 seconds of inactivity, the original item (Outside
temperature/Compass) is again displayed.
NOTE
²
The outside temperature can be displayed from
-40ÉF (-40ÉC)
²If the outside temperature is below -40ÉF (-40ÉC) or
over 140ÉF (60É C) an error message ªSCº or ªOCº
will be shown in the display. If an error message
(ªSCº or ªOCº) will be shown in the display, have
the system checked at an authorized dealer.
²If the outside temperature drops below about 37ÉF
(3ÉC)
²The outside temperature displayed may differ from
the actual temperature on account of surrounding
conditions, driving conditions, etc.

Compass operation
When the ignition key is in the ªACCº or ªONº position,
the vehicle's current directional heading (N, NE, E, SE, S,
SW, W and NW) will be displayed.
Magnetic variation of compass
Under certain circumstances, as during a long distance
cross-country trip, it will be necessary to adjust for
magnetic variation of compass. Magnetic variation of
compass is the difference between earth's magnetic northand true geographic north. If not adjusted to account for
magnetic variation of compass, your compass could give
false readings.
To adjust for magnetic variation of compass
1. Press the display switch more than 9 seconds, less than
12 seconds. The current zone number will appear in the
display.

2. Find your current location and variance zone number
on the zone map.
3. Press the display switch until the new zone number
appears in the display. After 5 seconds of inactivity, the
original item (Outside temperature/Compass) displayed
again.NOTE
²
Do not attach ski racks, antennas, or any other object
to the vehicle by means of a magnet. Such magnets
will affect the operation of the compass.
²If the compass deviates from the correct indication
soon after repeated adjustment, have the compass
checked at an authorized dealer.
²The compass may not indicate the correct compass
point in the places shown below:
²Vehicles in tunnels or parked in buildings
²Expressways, near railroads, underneath railroad
cables, or over subways
²Near transformer stations or high voltage power
lines
In these cases, the correct direction will be displayed once
the vehicle returns to a place where the earth's magnetic
field is stable.

To calibrate the compassIf the display reads ªCALº (A), there may be a strong
magnetic field interfering with the compass. In this case,
the compass may need calibration.
If the ªCALº is displayed, drive the vehicle in a circle at
about 5 mph (8km/h) or less until the ªCALº goes off.

If the ªCALº is not displayed, but compass calibration is
required, press and hold the display switch for 12 sec-
onds, or until ªCALº is displayed. With ªCALº dis-
played, drive the vehicle in a circle at less than 5mph
(8km/h) or less until the ªCALº goes off.
Cleaning of the mirror
When cleaning the mirror, use a paper towel or similar
material dampened with glass cleaner. Do not spray glass
cleaner directly on the mirror as that may cause the liquid
cleaner to enter the mirror housing.
Electric remote-controlled outside mirrors
The outside rearview mirrors can be adjusted when the
ignition key is in the ªONº or ªACCº position.
Place the lever (A) to the same side as the mirror whose
adjustment is desired:
L - Left outside mirror adjustment
R - Right outside mirror adjustment

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR RADIO
A vehicle is not an ideal place to listen to the radio,
because the vehicle moves, and reception conditions are
constantly changing. Buildings, terrain, signal distance
and noise from other vehicles are all working against
good reception.
Please read the following information regarding radio
reception, especially those regarding stereo transmission.
