Compass Variance
Compass Variance is the difference between
Magnetic North and Geographic North. To com-pensate for the differences, the variance should
be set for the zone where the vehicle is driven,
per the zone map. Once properly set, the com-
pass will automatically compensate for the dif-
ferences and provide the most accurate com-
pass heading.
NOTE:
Magnetic and battery powered devices,
(such as cell phones, iPod’s, radar detec-
tors, PDA’s, and laptops) should be kept
away from the top of the instrument panel.
This is where the compass module is lo-
cated and such devices may interfere and
cause false compass readings.1. Place the ignition in the ON position.
