Compass: Adjustments
Electrical Compass Zone Selection and Calibration
Set the compass zone
NOTE:
-
Do this procedure any time the electrical compass unit is replaced.
-
Do this procedure in an open area away from buildings, power lines, and other vehicles.
-
If you see "-- " in the compass display and the CAL indicator is shown in the display, the electrical compass unit is self-calibrating.
-
The electrical compass unit may need to be manually calibrated after exposure to a strong magnetic field. If the electrical compass seems to be
continually showing the wrong direction and is not self-calibrating, do the following procedure.
-
In most areas, there is a variation between magnetic north and true north. The electrical compass zone needs to be set to your geographic zone to
compensate for this variation.
1. Check the No. 23 (10 A) fuse in the under-hood fuse/relay box. Then check the No. 10 (7.5A) fuse and the No. 35 (7.5 A) fuses in the under-dash
fuse/relay box
2. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II), then press and hold the RPT button (A) and SOUND button (B) on the audio switch panel for about 5 seconds
until you hear a beep. The display shows the electrical compass setting menu items.
3. When COMPASS SET is displayed, press the No. 2 button on the audio switch panel.
