356 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL
Compass Variance is the difference between Magnetic
North and Geographic North. To compensate for the
differences the variance should be set for the zone where
the vehicle is being driven, illustrated in the zone map.
Once properly set, the compass will automatically com-
pensate for the differences when calibrated, and provide
the most accurate compass headings.

• Compass Calibration
Press "Compass Calibration" on the touchscreen to enter
calibration. To start calibration of the compass, press the
"YES" button on the touchscreen and complete one or
more 360-degree turns (in an area free from large metal or
metallic objects). A message will appear on the touch-
screen when the compass has been successfully cali-
brated.
NOTE: Keep magnetic materials away from the top of the
instrument panel, such as Mobile Phones, Laptops and
Radar Detectors. This is where the compass module is
located, and it can cause interference with the compass
sensor, and it may give false readings.
