Compass Calibration
The compass can be manuallycalibrated.

If CAL should ever appear in theDIC display, the compass should becalibrated.
If the DIC display does not show aheading, for example, N for North,or the heading does not changeafter making turns, there may be astrong magnetic field interfering withthe compass. Such interferencemay be caused by a magnetic CB orcell phone antenna mount, amagnetic emergency light, magneticnote pad holder, or any othermagnetic item. Turn off the vehicle,move the magnetic item, then turnon the vehicle and calibrate thecompass.
To c a l i b r a t e t h e c o m p a s s , u s e t h efollowing procedure:
