NOTE: Tires heat up during normal driving conditions.

psi (14 to 41 kPa) during normal driving conditions. Refer
to "Tire Inflation Pressures" in Starting and Operating,

Blank Screen
Shows a blank screen. Pressing the STEP button returns
to the compass and temperature display.
Automatic Compass Calibration
This compass is self-calibrating which eliminates the
need to manually set the compass. When the vehicle is
new, the compass may appear erratic and the CAL
symbol will be displayed.
After completing three 360° turns in an area free from
large metal or metallic objects, the CAL symbol will turn
off and the compass will function normally.
Manual Compass Calibration
If the compass appears erratic and the CAL symbol does
not appear, you must manually put the compass into the
"Calibration" mode.
NOTE: To ensure proper compass calibration, make
sure the compass variance is properly set before manu-
ally calibrating the compass (see variance map).
To Put Into a Calibration Mode
Turn on the ignition and set the display to "Compass/
Temperature." Press and hold the RESET button to
change the display between VAR (compass variance) and
CAL (compass calibration) modes. When the CAL sym-
bol is displayed complete three 360 degree turns in an
area free from large metal objects or power lines. The
CAL symbol will turn off and the compass will function
normally.
