Zone 8 is the factory default. During program-

zone 15 to zone 1.
Calibrating the Compass (Mid Line Cluster
Only)
If the compass appears erratic, inaccurate, or
abnormal, you may wish to calibrate it. However,
prior to calibrating the compass, make sure the
proper Compass Variance value is selected.
NOTE:
The vehicle speed must be at 0 mph (0 km/h)
(manual transmission) or the shift lever in
PARK (auto transmission) to enter the calibra-
tion mode.
To calibrate the compass, first, start the engine.
Next, press and hold the Trip Odometer button
until the current variance zone number displays
(approximately ten seconds). Then, press and
hold the button again until the direction displays
with the "CAL" indicator on continuously (approxi-
mately ten seconds). Finally, drive the vehicle in
one or more complete circles, at speeds under 5
mph (8 km/h), in an area free from power lines and
large metallic objects, until the "CAL" indicator
turns off. The compass will now function normally.
