Zone Variation Mode - Ford Freestar 2007 Owner's Manual

The compass reading may be affected when you drive near large
buildings, bridges, power lines and powerful broadcast antenna. Magnetic
or metallic objects placed in or on the vehicle may also affect compass
accuracy. Adjustments may need to be made to the zone and calibration
of the compass.

Zone variation mode

1. Determine which magnetic zone
you are in by referring to the zone
map.
2. Turn the ignition to the ON
position.
3. Press and hold the momentary
push-button for approximately 4
seconds, until VAR is displayed,
then release it. (Pressing the
momentary push-button for 8
seconds de-calibrates the
compass—see Compass
Calibration Mode).
4. Press the button to increment the
VAR number to the desired VAR
number. Wait 5 seconds without
button activity and the compass will return to the heading mode.
Note: If there is no button activity for 5 seconds, the compass writes the
displayed zone VAR number to memory and exits Zone Variation Mode
