The compass direction is given in a digital display
(eight compass points) in the corner of the mirror.
The brightness of the compass display dims as the
ambient light level falls. The compass must be
calibrated by the Dealer at PDI to compensate for
the difference between magnetic north and true
north in the part of the world where the car is
driven. For best results, the calibration procedure
should take place in an open area free from
overhead power lines or large metal structures.
On the underside of the mirror pod there are two
small holes. Insert a small screwdriver or other
