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.

the compass will automatically compensate for the differ-
ences and provide the most accurate compass heading.

Start the engine and leave the transmission gear selector
lever in the PARK position. Press and hold the RESET
button on the steering wheel (for approximately ten
seconds) until the current variance zone number is dis-
played. To change the zone, press and release the STEP
