Compass
The compass is integrated in the rearview
mirror. The compass bearing is displayed in
the top right-hand corner of the mirror and is
updated every other second. The compass
displays the car’s direction of travel: N, NE,
E, etc.
Switch the compass display on and off by
pressing button 5 for 3 seconds.
Changing zones
The earth’s magnetic fields vary depending
on one’s position on the globe. If you drive
your car from one magnetic zone to another
the compass setting will need to be changed
to ensure a correct bearing.
1 Study the illustrations to determine the
correct zone.
2 Press and hold button 5 until "ZONE" is
shown in the display on the mirror
(6 seconds). The zone number setting
now is also shown.
3 Press button 5 repeatedly to change the
zone number. There are 15 zones from
which to choose. Once the correct zone
is selected, release the button and wait
4 seconds. The compass will now dis-
play the bearing.
Calibration
Calibration is performed automatically
during travel. If an accessory, such as a
mobile phone, is fitted and it can be
assumed that the compass is affected, the
compass may need to be calibrated manu-
ally.
1 Press and hold button 5 until "CAL" and
the compass bearing are displayed
(approx. 9 seconds).
2 Drive in circles (max. 5 mph/8 km/h) or
drive as normal until "CAL" is no longer
displayed.
