Automatic Compass Calibration

The compass on your vehicle is self-calibrating, eliminat-
ing the need to manually calibrate the compass. When
the vehicle is new, the compass may appear erratic and
the CAL indicator message will flash in the EVIC until
the calibration is complete.
A good calibration requires a level surface and an envi-
ronment free from large metallic objects such as build-
ings, bridges, underground cables, railroad tracks, etc.
Calibrate the compass by driving slowly, under 5 mph
(8 km/h) in one or more complete circles in an area free
from large metallic objects, until the CAL indicator in the
EVIC turns off. The compass will now function normally.
