•The compass on your vehicle is self-calibrating, elimi-
nating the need to manually calibrate the compass.
•If the vehicle is equipped with a Chrysler ™ gps

play (displays information on outside temperature, com-
pass direction, and trip information). NOTE:
The system will display the last known outside
temperature when starting the vehicle and may need to
be driven several minutes before the updated tempera-
ture is displayed. Engine temperature can also affect the
displayed temperature, therefore temperature readings
are not updated when the vehicle is not moving.CMTC Reset Buttons
