Recalibrating the instruments
(compass and roll and pitch
meters)
The red LEDs will start to flash if
there is a fault with one of these
instruments.
In this case, the instruments must be
recalibrated. Proceed as follows:
– park the vehicle in an area which
is flat and with plenty of space
(suitable for driving through a
compete circle);
– make sure that the vehicle is
completely stationary;
– start the engine;
– use the stalk to switch on the side
lights 3 times in the space of 15
seconds;
– the roll and pitch meter LEDs
flash to indicate that the
recalibration process has started,
after which the compass LEDs
also flash;– at this point, drive the vehicle
through 2 complete circles,
finishing at the same starting point;
– the compass LEDs will stop
flashing; you must now switch the
side lights off 3 times in the space
of 15 seconds;
– the compass LEDs will switch on
for a moment, after which the
instrument panel display will show
a dedicated message regarding the
result of the calibration process.IMPORTANT Do not carry out the
recalibration procedure near strong
magnetic fields or energy sources.
To achieve correct recalibration,
carry out the procedure with vehicle
in running order and without
additional loads.
