Compass

With the ignition on, the compass
reading will appear in the driver
information center display.
As you are driving, N (North), NE
(North East), E (East), SE (South
East), S (South), SW (South West),
W (West) or NW (North West)
should appear on the display to
show your vehicle's direction.
If, after a few seconds, the reading
does not appear, the compass may
need calibration.
There may be a strong magnetic
field (from various magnetic
objects on the vehicle) interfering
with the compass.
Turn off the engine, move the
magnetic objects, then restart the
engine and calibrate the compass.
If CAL appears in the Driver
Information Center display, the
compass needs calibration.
See "Compass Calibration" later in
this section for more information.
It may be necessary to adjust the
compass to compensate for
compass variance.
Section 1
If an incorrect reading is displayed,
first check that the compass is set
to the correct variance zone. If it is,
the compass needs calibration.
See "Compass Variance" later in
this section for more information.
