ZONE VARIATION CHANGE PROCE-
DURE
GUID-0E831674-32EA-49CF-AB30-0F9EEEB78E33The difference between magnetic north and
geographical north is known as variance. In
some areas, this difference can sometimes be
great enough to cause false compass readings.
Follow these instructions to set the variance for
your particular location if this happens:
1.Push the
switch for more than 3
seconds. The current zone number will
appear in the display.
2. Find your current location and variance
number on the zone map.
NOTE:
Use zone number 5 for Hawaii.
3. Push the
switch repeatedly until the
new zone number appears in the display,
then release the switch. After you release
the switch, the display will show a compass
direction within a few seconds.
.If the compass deviates from the correct indication soon after repeated adjust-
ment, have the compass checked at a
NISSAN dealer.
.The compass may not indicate thecorrect compass point in tunnels or while
driving up or down a steep hill.
(The compass returns to the correct com- pass point when the vehicle moves to an
area where the geomagnetism is stabilized.)
CAUTION
.
Do not install a ski rack, antenna,
etc., which are attached to the
vehicle by means of a magnet. They
affect the operation of the compass.
. When cleaning the mirror, use a
paper towel or similar material
dampened with glass cleaner. Do
not spray glass cleaner directly on
the mirror as it may cause the liquid
cleaner to enter the mirror housing.
