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.
The following displays can be reset or changed:
•Compass/Temperature
•AVG ECO (changes to present fuel economy)
•ET (will reset display)
•DTE (distance to empty)
These messages can be cycled through by pressing the
STEP button on the steering wheel. To reset the AVG ECO
or ET, press and hold the STEP button for approximately
three seconds.
Compass/Temperature Display
NOTE: If the vehicle is equipped with a Chrysler
Uconnect™ gps (Navigation Radio), the NAV system will
provide the compass direction, and the variance and
calibration menus will be unavailable. The compass will
perform accurately, based on GPS signals instead of the
Earth’s magnetic field.
Compass Variance
Compass Variance is the difference between Magnetic
North and Geographic North. To compensate for the
differences, the variance should be set for the zone where
the vehicle is driven, per the zone map. Once properly set,
the compass will automatically compensate for the differ-
ences and provide the most accurate compass heading.
NOTE:
•A good calibration requires a level surface and an
environment free from large metallic objects such as
buildings, bridges, underground cables, railroad
tracks, etc.
