Calibrating the compass
The direction display deviates fr om the true direction determined by
the earth’s magnetic field. The amount of deviation varies depending
on the geographic position of the vehicle.
If you cross over one of the map boundaries shown in illustration, the
compass will deviate.
To obtain higher precision or perfect calibration, refer to “Deviation calibra-
tion”.

■ Conditions unfavorable to correct operation
The compass may not show the correct direction in the following conditions:
● The vehicle is stopped immediately after turning.
● The vehicle is on an inclined surface.
● The vehicle is in a place where the earth's magnetic field is subject to
interference by artificial magnetic fields (underground car park/parking
lot, under a steel tower, between buildings, roof car park/parking lot, near
an intersection, near a large vehicle, etc.).

■ When doing the circling calibration
Secure a wide space, and watch out for people and vehicles in the vicinity.
Do not violate any local traffic rules while performing circling calibration.
NOTICE
■To avoid compass malfunctions
Do not place magnets or any metal objects near the accessory meter dis-
play.
Doing this may cause the compass sensor to malfunction.
■ To ensure normal operation of the compass
● Do not perform a circling calibration of the compass in a place where the
earth's magnetic field is subject to interference by artificial magnetic fields.
● During calibration, do not operate electric systems (moon roof, power win-
dows, etc.) as they may interfere with the calibration.
In the following situations, an error mes-
sage regarding the circling calibration will
appear on the accessory meter display
for a few seconds:
●The vehicle was driven too fast during
the circling calibration.
● The circling calibration was not com-
