zones” map shown above to verify that
the compass zone setting is correct for
your geographical location.
2. Press and hold the compass button for
3 to 6 seconds, and then release it. The

! Compass calibration
1. For optimum calibration, switch off all
nonessential electrical accessories (rear
window defogger, heater/air conditioning
system, spotlight, etc.) and ensure all
doors are shut.
2. Drive to an open, level area away from
large metallic objects or structures and
make certain the ignition switch is in the
“ON” position.
3. Press and hold the compass button for
6 to 9 seconds, and then release it. The
compass will enter the calibration mode,
then “C” and the direction will be displayed.
4. Drive slowly in a circle until “C”
disappears from the display. Driving in
two or three circles might be necessary.
The compass is now calibrated.
5. Further calibration may be necessary
should outside influences cause the compass to read inaccurately. You will notice
any outside influence if the compass tends
to read in only one particular direction.
Should you encounter this situation, return
to step 1 of the above procedure and
recalibrate the compass.
