COMPASS
The compass heading is displayed in the message center display.
The compass reading may be affected when you drive near large
buildings, bridges, power lines and powerful broadcast antenna. Magnetic
or metallic objects placed in, on or near the vehicle may also affect
compass accuracy.
Usually, when something affects the compass readings, the compass will
correct itself after a few days of operating your vehicle in normal
conditions. If the compass still appears to be inaccurate, a manual
calibration may be necessary. Refer toCompass zone/calibration
adjustment.
Most geographic areas (zones) have a magnetic north compass point that
varies slightly from the northerly direction on maps. This variation is four
degrees between adjacent zones and will become noticeable as the
vehicle crosses multiple zones. A correct zone setting will eliminate this
error. Do the following to set the proper zone:
Compass zone/calibration adjustment
1. Determine your magnetic zone by
referring to the zone map.
2. Start the engine.
3. Press INFO repeatedly until only
the compass and odometer are
displayed–the top of the message
center must be blank.
Note:If the compass displays CAL
000000.0 mi instead of heading
information, the compass will need
to be calibrated. Slowly drive the
vehicle in a circle (less than 3 mph [5 km/h]) until the CAL indicator
changes to display compass heading. This may take up to three circles to
complete calibration.
4. Press and hold the RESET button until the message center display
prompts you to reset the current zone setting. Press RESET.
5. Press SETUP repeatedly to choose the correct zone setting for your
geographic location. To exit the zone setting mode press and release the
RESET control.
6. The message center will prompt you to press RESET to calibrate or
press INFO to exit. Press RESET to start the compass calibration
function.

GENERAL AUDIO INFORMATION
Radio frequencies:
AM and FM frequencies are established by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) and the Canadian Radio and Telecommunications
Commission (CRTC). Those frequencies are:
AM: 530, 540–1700, 1710 kHz
FM: 87.7, 87.9–107.7, 107.9 MHz
Radio reception factors:
There are three factors that can affect radio reception:
•Distance/strength: The further you travel from an FM station, the
weaker the signal and the weaker the reception.
•Terrain: Hills, mountains, tall buildings, power lines, electric fences,
traffic lights and thunderstorms can interfere with your reception.
•Station overload: When you pass a broadcast tower, a stronger signal
may overtake a weaker one and play while the weak station frequency
is displayed.
