Digital Compass Calibration
The compass can be calibrated by driving your vehicle in several complete circles. See
figures below. If the vehicle’s compass headings become inaccurate, the compass
can also be manually calibrated:
1.Press the “MENU” three times to enter into “SETTING” menu, and press “SEL/REC”
button to choose the “ANGLE”. Press UP/DOWN to adjust the angle.
Please visit: http://magnetic-declination.com/ to find out the compass angle
of your area. 5-1.
2. Press “ SEL/REC” to select the “CALIBRATION”, the default mode is “OFF”, press “DOWN”
select “AUTO” 1-2.
3. Drive your vehicle in at least 2 circles counterclockwise, allowing 90 seconds
to complete one circle.
4. Keep your circle radius close to 5 meters and your speed less
than 10km/h for the most accurate calibration. 1-3.
Caution
1. Make sure the rear view mirror is clearly visable to the driver before calibration.
2. Do not calibrate the compass near a large truck.
3. Make sure that you drive in several complete circles, the steering wheel needs to reach a cer-
tain angle for calibration to function properly. The diameter of the driving circle should be close
to 5 meters.
4. Do not drive too fast when calibrating, your pace should be equal to one third normal adult
walking speed. Complete 2-3 circles to finish the calibration.
5. After a new car audio system is installed, the compass needs to be recalibrated. This is be-
cause the car’s magnetic field has changed.
5. Press “SEL/REC” to select the “CALIBRATION”, press UP/DOWN, select “OFF” 1-4.
