Compass Display Ð 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 calibrate the compass. When the ve-
hicle is new, the compass may appear erratic and the
EVIC will display ªCOMPASS CALIBRATINGº until the
compass is calibrated. The compass will function nor-
mally.
To calibrate the compass, drive the vehicle in one or more
complete 360É circles, under 5 mph (8 km/h) in an area
free from large metal objects, until the ªCOMPASS CALI-
BRATINGº message turns off.
Manual Compass Calibration
If the compass appears erratic, inaccurate or abnormal,
you may wish to manually calibrate the compass. Prior to
calibration, make sure the proper zone is selected.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 ªCOMPASS
CALIBRATINGº message appears. Release the MENU
button and drive the vehicle in one or more complete
three, 360É circles, under 5 mph (8 km/h) in an area free
from large metal objects, until the ªCOMPASS CALI-
BRATINGº message turns off.
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. In order to ensure accuracy, the compass vari-
ance should be properly set according to the compass
variance zone that the vehicle is in.
