CORRECTION FUNCTIONS OF COMPASS
If the direction is not shown correctly, carry out initial correction.
INITIAL CORRECTION PROCEDURE FOR COMPASS
1. Pushing the "COMP" switch for about 10 seconds will enter the initial correction mode. The direction bar starts blinking.
2. Turn off all electrical equipment (turn signals, hazard signal, A/C, lights, etc.). In a broad, flat, and safe location, drive the vehicle slowly
[approximately 5 km/h (3 MPH) or less], and turn the vehicle 360 ° or more several times. When the direction appears on the display, correction
is complete.
NOTE: The correct direction may not be shown in locations where the earth's magnetic field is disrupted, such as those listed below.
