The compass is self-calibrating, which eliminates
the need to manually set the compass. However,
under certain circumstances, such as during a long
distance cross-country trip, it will be necessary
to compensate for compass variance and reset the
zone through the DIC. SeeDIC Compass
(Uplevel DIC) on page 198for more information.
The buttons on the DIC trip computer are gages,
trip odometer, set/reset, options, and fuel.
