Compass
There is a compass display in the
Driver Information Center (DIC). The
compass receives its heading and
other information from the Global
Positioning System (GPS) antenna,
StabiliTrak, and vehicle speed
information.
Avoid covering the GPS antenna for
long periods of time with objects
that may interfere with the antenna's
ability to receive a satellite signal.
See
Backglass Antenna on
page 7 ‑ 15 and Satellite Radio
Antenna on page 7 ‑ 15 for the
location of the vehicle's antennas.
The compass system is designed to
operate for a certain number of
miles or degrees of turn before
needing a signal from the GPS
satellites. When the compass
display shows CAL, drive the
vehicle for a short distance in an
open area where it can receive a
GPS signal. The compass system
will automatically determine when
the GPS signal is restored and
provide a heading again. See
Compass Messages on page 5 ‑ 30
for more information on the
messages that may be displayed for
the compass.
Clock
