Calibration procedure
The compass may not indicate the cor- rect compass direction if the electronic
compass has not been calibrated cor-
rectly, if the compass zone number is dif-
ferent for your current location, or when
you are driving in certain areas (tunnel,
parking garage, underground parking lot,
near transformer substation, etc.), and
the following may occur:
The compass headings become inac-curate.
The compass heading doesn't change when the vehicle changes direction.
Some compass headings are not dis- played.
The compass headings are inaccurate in long distance driving.
If the vehicle's compass headings
become inaccurate continuously, the
compass should be manually calibrated
as follows: 1. For optimum calibration, switch off all
nonessential electrical accessories
(rear window defroster, climate controlsystem, audio system and windshield
wiper, etc.) and close all doors.
2. Move the vehicle to a safe and large place away from any large steel struc-
tures or power generating cables orequipment.
3. Turn on the compass function, and press and hold the COMPASS button
(2) for about 3 seconds until the
"ZONE" appears in the display.
Release the button and the zone num-
ber will appear in the display. If the zone number is different for your
current location, set the correct zone
number referring to "Setting the compass
zone" and perform the "Calibration pro-cedure" again.

How car audio works
AM(MW, LW) and FM radio signals are
broadcast from transmitter towers locat-
ed around your city. They are intercept-
ed by the radio antenna on your car. This
signal is then received by the radio and
sent to your car speakers.
When a strong radio signal has reached
your vehicle, the precise engineering of
your audio system ensures the best pos-
sible quality reproduction. However, in
some cases the signal coming to your
vehicle may not be strong and clear. This
can be due to factors such as the dis-
tance from the radio station, closeness of
other strong radio stations or the pres-
ence of buildings, bridges or other large
obstructions in the area. AM(MW, LW) broadcasts can be
received at greater distances than FM
broadcasts. This is because AM(MW,
LW) radio waves are transmitted at low
frequencies. These long, low frequency
radio waves can follow the curvature of
the earth rather than travelling straight
out into the atmosphere. In addition, they
curve around obstructions so that they
can provide better signal coverage.
FM broadcasts are transmitted at high
frequencies and do not bend to follow the
earth's surface. Because of this, FM
broadcasts generally begin to fade at
short distances from the station. Also,
FM signals are easily affected by build-
ings, mountains, or other obstructions.
These can result in certain listening con-
ditions which might lead you to believe a
problem exists with your radio. The fol-
lowing conditions are normal and do not
indicate radio trouble:
