Compass/Temperature Display
This display provides the outside temperature and one of
eight compass readings to indicate the direction the
vehicle is facing.
WARNING!Even if the display still reads a few degrees above
32 ° F(0 ° C), the road surface may be icy, particularly
in woods or on bridges. Drive carefully under such
conditions to prevent an accident and possible per-
sonal injury or property damage. 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 “ CAL ”
symbol will be displayed. After completing three 360 °
turns in an area free from large metal or metallic objects,
the “ CAL ” symbol will turn off and the compass will
function normally.
Manual Compass Calibration
If the compass appears erratic and the “ CAL ” symbol
does not appear, you must put the compass into the
Calibration Mode manually. UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 159

To put into a Calibration Mode: Turn on the ignition
switch and set the display to Comp/Temp. Press the
RESET button on vehicles equipped with a Compass/
Mini Trip Computer for at least 10 seconds until the
“ CAL ” symbol appears. On vehicles equipped with
Compass/Temp press and hold the C/T and US/M
buttons for 10 seconds. Release the RESET button and
complete three 360 ° turns in an area free from large metal
objects. The “ CAL ” symbol will turn off and the compass
will function normally.
CAUTION!Do not place any external magnets, such as magnetic
roof mount antennas, in the vicinity of the compass.
Do not use magnetic tools when servicing the over-
head console. 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.160 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

To set the variance: Turn the ignition switch ON and set
the display to Comp/Temp. On vehicles equipped with a
Compass/Mini Trip Computer press the RESET button
for approximately 5 seconds. On vehicles equipped with
Compass/Temp press and hold the C/T and US/M
buttons for 5 seconds. The “ VA R ” symbol will light and
the last variance zone number will be displayed. Press
the STEP button on vehicles equipped with a Compass/
Mini Trip Computer or the US/M button on vehicles
equipped with Compass/Temp to select the proper vari-
ance zone as shown in the map. Press the RESET button
on vehicles equipped with a Compass/Mini Trip Com-
puter or the C/T button on vehicles equipped with
Compass/Temp to set the new variance zone and resume
