Manual Compass Calibration
If the compass appears erratic or inaccurate, and the
variance has been properly set, you may wish to manu-
ally recalibrate the compass. To manually calibrate the
compass:
1. Start the engine. Leave the shift lever in PARK in order
to enter the EVIC Programming Menus.
2. Press and release the MENU button until "Personal
Settings" displays in the EVIC.
3. Press and release the DOWN button until "Calibrate
Compass Yes" displays in the EVIC.
4. Press and release the SELECT button and the "CAL"
indicator will start flashing.
5. Drive the vehicle slowly (under 5 mph/8 km/h), com-
pleting one or more circles (in an area free from large
metal or metallic objects) until the "CAL" indicator turns
off. The compass will now function normally.
Compass Variance
Compass Variance is the difference between Magnetic
North and Geographic North. To compensate for the differ-
ences, the variance should be set for the zone where the
vehicle is driven, per the zone map. Once properly set, the
compass will automatically compensate for the differences
and provide the most accurate compass heading.
NOTE: Magnetic and battery powered devices, (such as
cell phones, iPod's, radar detectors, PDA's and laptops)
should be kept away from the top of the instrument
panel. This is where the compass module is located and
such devices may interfere and cause false compass
readings.
