Compass Calibration
Compass Calibration
1. NOTE: For optimum calibration, drive to an open, level location away from large metallic objects or structures such as bridges, steel buildings,
etc. Switch off all non-essential electrical accessories (heated rear window, heater fan, A/C, map lamps, and wipers) and make sure all doors are
closed.
Start the vehicle.
2. NOTE: The vehicle remains in CAL mode until the compass has been successfully calibrated.
NOTE: While holding the MODE button down, the compass display first enters the ZONE setting mode (after 3 seconds) and then after another 3
seconds (6 seconds total), the compass display enters the CAL mode.
Press and hold (for approximately 6 seconds) the MODE button until the C or CAL indicator appears in the display, then release the MODE
button.
3. NOTE: If the CAL indicator does not turn off after the vehicle is driven in a circle at least 5 times, repeat the procedure.
Drive the vehicle slowly at less than 5 km/h (3 mph) in a continuous circle until the C or CAL indicator disappears from the display and the
compass heading is displayed.
4. If the C or CAL indicator does not turn off after driving in a circle at least 5 times (and the procedure has been repeated at least once), install a
new interior rear view mirror with electronic compass.
