RESET next to it.
When the RIGHTarrow button is pushed, the
selected feature will reset and RESET ALL will display
next to the RIGHT
arrow button . Pushing the
RIGHT

selected feature will have been reset.
Compass, Outside Temperature Display / ECO
(Fuel Saver Mode) — If Equipped
The compass readings indicate the direction the vehicle is
facing. Push and release the COMPASSbutton to display
one of eight compass headings, the outside temperature/
ECO if the EVIC display is not already displaying this
screen.
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.

ECO (Fuel Saver Mode) — If Equipped
The ECO message will display below the outside tem-
perature in the EVIC display (if the audio system is on
the ECO indicator will override the audio information
display line if theDisplay Fuel Saver personal setting is
ON — see Personal Settings section). This message will
appear whenever you are driving in a fuel efficient
manner.
This feature allows you to monitor when you are driving
in a fuel efficient manner, and it can be used to modify
driving habits in order to increase fuel economy.
Automatic Compass Calibration
This compass is self-calibrating, which eliminates the
need to set the compass manually. When the vehicle is
new, the compass may appear erratic, and the EVIC will
display “CAL” until the compass is calibrated. You may
also calibrate the compass by completing one or more
360–degree turns (in an area free from large metal or metallic objects) until the “CAL” message displayed in
the EVIC turns off. The compass will now function
normally.
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.
Manual Compass Calibration
If the compass appears erratic and the “CAL” indicator
does not appear in the EVIC display, you must put the
compass into the Calibration Mode manually as follows:
1. Start the engine. Leave the shift lever in PARK in order to enter the EVIC Programming Menus.
2. Push the MENU button until Personal Settings (Customer-Programmable Features) displays in the
EVIC.

3. Push the DOWN button until “Calibrate Compass”displays in the EVIC.
4. Push and release the RIGHT button to start the calibration. The “CAL” indicator will display in the
EVIC.
5. Complete one or more 360–degree turns (in an area free from large metal or metallic objects) until the
“CAL” indicator turns off. The compass will now
function normally.
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
differences and provide the most accurate compass head-
ing. NOTE:
Magnetic materials should be kept away from
the top of the instrument panel; this is where the compass
sensor is located.
Compass Variance Map
350 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL

To Change The Compass Variance:
1. Turn the ignition switch RUN (it is not necessary tostart the engine).
2. Push the MENU button until Personal Settings (Customer-Programmable Features) displays in the
EVIC.
3. Push the DOWN button until “Compass Variance” message and the last variance zone number displays
in the EVIC.
4. Push and release the RIGHT button until the proper variance zone is selected according to the map.
5. Push and release the COMPASS button to exit.
Digital Speedometer
Shows the actual vehicle speed in mph or km/h.
Average Fuel Economy
Shows the average fuel economy since the last reset. Average
Fuel Economy can be reset by pushing and holding the
RIGHT
arrow button (as prompted in the EVIC
display). Upon reset, the history information will be
erased, and the averaging will continue from the last
fuel average reading before the reset.
Distance To Empty (DTE)
Shows the estimated distance that can be traveled with
the fuel remaining in the tank. This estimated distance is
determined by a weighted average of the instantaneous
and average fuel economy, according to the current fuel
tank level. DTE cannot be reset.
NOTE: Significant changes in driving style or vehicle
loading will greatly affect the actual drivable distance of
the vehicle, regardless of the DTE display value.
