The vehicle may have a compass
display on the Driver Information
Center (DIC). The compass receives
its heading and other information

vehicle for a short distance in an
open area where it can receive a
GPS signal. The compass system
will automatically determine when a
GPS signal is restored and provide
a heading again.
