Compass Display — If Equipped
This display provides one of eight compass readings to
indicate the direction the vehicle is facing.
Automatic Compass Calibration
This compass is self calibrating which eliminates the
need to manually set the compass. When the vehicle is
new, the compass may appear erratic and the EVIC will
display “COMPASS CALIBRATING” until the compass
is calibrated. The compass will calibrate automatically
after approximately 40 seconds if no buttons are pressed
and the vehicle is in Park. You may also calibrate the
compass by completing one 360° turn in an area free from
large metal or metallic objects, the “COMPASS CALI-
BRATING” EVIC message will turn off and the compass
will function normally.

Manual Compass Calibration
If the compass appears erratic and the “COMPASS CALI-
BRATING” message does not appear in the EVIC display,
you must put the compass into the Calibration Mode
manually.
To put into a Calibration Mode: Turn on the ignition
switch and set the display to Compass. Press the RESET
button for at least 10 seconds until the “COMPASS
CALIBRATING” message appears. Release the RESET
button and complete one 360° turn in an area free from
large metal objects. The “COMPASS CALIBRATING”
message will turn off and the compass will function
normally.
Compass Variance
Compass Variance is the difference between magnetic
North and Geographic North. In some areas of the
country, the difference between magnetic and geographic
North is great enough to cause the compass to give false
readings. If this occurs, the compass variance must be set.
NOTE: Magnetic materials should be kept away from
the overhead console.

To set the variance:Turn the ignition switch ON and set
the display to Compass. Press the RESET button for
approximately 5 seconds but no more than 10 seconds.

ance zone number will be displayed. Press the STEP
button to select the proper variance zone as shown in the
map. Press the RESET button to set the new variance
zone and resume normal operation.
