Calibrating the compass
North America is divided into 15 magnetic zones and the compass will need to be calibrated if thevehicle is driven from one zone to another.
To calibrate the compass:
1. Stop the vehicle in a large open area, safely out of traffic and away from steel structures and high-tension electrical wires.
2. Start the vehicle.
NOTE
• For best calibration results, switch off all electrical equipment in the vehicle (climatesystem, windshield wipers, audio system,etc.) and make sure that all doors areclosed.
• Calibration may not succeed or be incor-rect if the vehicle's electrical equipment isnot switched off.
3. Using a pen, paperclip or similar object, press
and hold the button on the underside of mir- ror for approx. 3 seconds until the number ofthe current magnetic zone is displayed.

Magnetic zones
4. Press the button on the underside of mirrorrepeatedly until the desired magnetic zone (
1–15) is displayed (see the map of mag-
netic zones).
5. Wait until
C is again displayed in the mirror
or hold the button on the underside of mirror for approx. 6 seconds until
C is displayed in
the mirror.
6. Drive slowly in a circle at a speed of no more than 6 mph (10 km/h) until a direction is dis- played. This indicates that calibration is com-plete. Drive around in a circle an additionaltwo times to fine-tune the calibration.
7. Vehicles with an electrically heated wind- shield: * if
C is displayed when the heating
function is activated, perform step 6 with the heating function on.

The power seats have an overload protector that
activates if a seat is blocked by any object. If this occurs, put the ignition in mode I or 0 and wait
for a short period before operating the seat again. The power seat(s) can be adjusted for a short period after unlocking the door with the remotekey without switching the ignition on. Seat adjust-ment can always be made when the engine isrunning.
