If the compass appears erratic, inaccurate, or abnormal,
you may wish to calibrate it. However, prior to calibrat-
ing the compass, make sure the proper Compass Variance
value is selected.
NOTE: The shift lever must be in PARK to enter the
Calibration mode.
To calibrate the compass, first, start the engine. Next,
press and hold the COMPASS/TEMPERATURE DIS-
PLAY button until the current variance zone number
displays (approximately 10 seconds). Then, press and
hold the button again until the direction displays with
the "CAL" indicator on continuously (approximately 10
seconds). Finally, drive the vehicle in one or more com-

free from power lines and large metallic objects, until the
"CAL" indicator turns off. The compass will now func-
tion normally.
