4. Press the trip/fuel button

until the vehicle heading,
for example, N for North, is
displayed in the DIC. Or, if the
vehicle does not have DIC
buttons, press and hold the
trip odometer reset stem for
two seconds to select the next
available variance zone. Repeat
this step until the appropriate
variance zone is displayed.

5. If calibration is necessary,

calibrate the compass.
See

Compass Calibration

Procedure

following.

Compass Calibration

The compass can be manually
calibrated. Only calibrate the
compass in a magnetically clean
and safe location, such as an open
parking lot, where driving the
vehicle in circles is not a danger.

It is suggested to calibrate away
from tall buildings, utility wires,
manhole covers, or other industrial
structures, if possible.

If CAL should ever appear in the
DIC display, the compass should be
calibrated.

If the DIC display does not show a
heading, for example, N for North,
or the heading does not change
after making turns, there may be a
strong magnetic field interfering with
the compass. Such interference
may be caused by a magnetic CB
or cell phone antenna mount, a
magnetic emergency light, magnetic
note pad holder, or any other
magnetic item. Turn off the vehicle,
move the magnetic item, then turn
on the vehicle and calibrate the
compass.

To calibrate the compass, use the
following procedure:

Compass Calibration Procedure

1. Before calibrating the compass,

make sure the compass zone is
set to the variance zone in
which the vehicle is located.
See

Compass Variance (Zone)

Procedure

earlier in this

section.

Do not operate any switches
such as window, sunroof,
climate controls, or seats during
the calibration procedure.

2. Press the vehicle information

button until PRESS

V

TO

CALIBRATE COMPASS
displays. Or, if the vehicle does
not have DIC buttons, press the
trip odometer reset stem until
CALIBRATE COMPASS
displays.
