with a magnet will effect compass
operation.
2. If the compass deviates from the
correct indication soon after
repeated adjustment, have the
compass checked at an authorized
dealer.
3. The compass may not indicate the
correct compass point in tunnels
or while driving up or down a
steep hill.

rect compass point when the vehi-
cle moves to an area where the
