Circling calibration
When "C" appears on the dis-
play, drive the vehicle at 5 mph
(8 km/h) or less in a circle until a
direction is displayed.
If there is not enough space to
drive in a circle, drive around the
block until the direction is dis-
played.
■
Conditions unfavorable to correct operation
The compass may not show the correct direction in the following conditions:
●
The vehicle is stopped immediately after turning.
●
The vehicle is on an inclined surface.
●
The vehicle is in a place where the earth's magnetic field is subject to inter-
ference by artificial magnetic fields (underground car park/parking lot, under
a steel tower, between buildings, roof car park/parking lot, near an intersec-
tion, near a large vehicle, etc.).
●
The vehicle has become magnetized.
(There is a magnet or metal object near the inside rear view mirror.)
