windshield, blocking your vision.
Compass
This vehicle may have a compass inthe Driver Information Center (DIC).
Compass Zone
Yo u r d e a l e r w i l l s e t t h e c o r r e c t z o n efor your location.
Under certain circumstances, suchas during a long distancecross-country trip or moving to anew state or province, it will benecessary to compensate forcompass variance by resetting thezone through the DIC if the zone isnot set correctly.
Compass variance is the differencebetween the earth's magnetic northand true geographic north. If thecompass is not set to the zonewhere you live, the compass may
give false readings. The compassmust be set to the variance zone inwhich the vehicle is traveling.
To a d j u s t f o r c o m p a s s v a r i a n c e , u s ethe following procedure:

2. Find the vehicle's currentlocation and variance zonenumber on the map.
Zones 1 through 15 areavailable.
3. PressVto scroll through and
select the appropriatevariance zone.
4. Press3until the vehicle
heading, for example, N forNorth, is displayed in the DIC.
5. If calibration is necessary,calibrate the compass. See“Compass CalibrationProcedure”following.
Compass Calibration
The compass can be manuallycalibrated. Only calibrate thecompass in a magnetically cleanand safe location, such as an openparking lot, where driving thevehicle in circles is not a danger.It is suggested to calibrate awayfrom tall buildings, utility wires,manhole covers, or other industrialstructures, if possible.
If CAL should ever appear in theDIC display, the compass should becalibrated.
If the DIC display does not show aheading, for example, N for North,or the heading does not changeafter making turns, there may be astrong magnetic field interfering withthe compass. Such interferencemay be caused by a magnetic CB orcell phone antenna mount, amagnetic emergency light, magneticnote pad holder, or any othermagnetic item. Turn off the vehicle,move the magnetic item, then turnon the vehicle and calibrate thecompass.
To c a l i b r a t e t h e c o m p a s s , u s e t h efollowing procedure:
Compass Calibration Procedure
1. Before calibrating the compass,make sure the compass zoneis set to the variance zone inwhich the vehicle is located.See“Compass Variance (Zone)Procedure”earlier in thissection.
Do not operate any switchessuch as window, climatecontrols, seats, etc. during thecalibration procedure.

Trip Odometers
Press3until A or B displays.
This display shows the currentdistance traveled in eitherkilometers (km) or miles (mi) sincethe last reset for each trip odometer.Both trip odometers can be used atthe same time.
Each trip odometer can be reset to
zero separately by pressingVwhile
the desired trip odometer isdisplayed.
The trip odometer has a featurecalled the retro-active reset. Thiscan be used to set the trip odometerto the number of kilometers (miles)driven since the ignition was last
turned on. This can be used if thetrip odometer is not reset at thebeginning of the trip.
To u s e t h e r e t r o - a c t i v e r e s e t f e a t u r e ,
press and holdVfor at least
four seconds. The trip odometer willdisplay the number ofkilometers (km) or miles (mi) drivensince the ignition was last turned onand the vehicle was moving. Oncethe vehicle begins moving, the tripodometer will accumulate mileage.For example, if the vehicle wasdriven 8 km (5 miles) before it isstarted again, and then theretro-active reset feature isactivated, the display will show 8 km(5 miles). As the vehicle beginsmoving, the display will thenincrease to 8.1 km (5.1 miles),8.2 km (5.2 miles), etc.
If the retro-active reset feature isactivated after the vehicle is started,but before it begins moving, thedisplay will show the number ofkilometers (km) or miles (mi) thatwere driven during the last ignitioncycle.
Fuel Range
Press3until FUEL RANGE
displays. This display shows theapproximate number of remainingkilometers (km) or miles (mi) thevehicle can be driven withoutrefueling. The display will showLOW if the fuel level is low.
The fuel range estimate is based onan average of the fuel economyover recent driving history and theamount of fuel remaining in the fueltank. This estimate will change ifdriving conditions change. Forexample, if driving in traffic andmaking frequent stops, this displaymay read one number, but if thevehicle is driven on a freeway, thenumber may change even thoughthe same amount of fuel is in thefuel tank. This is because differentdriving conditions produce differentfuel economies. Generally, freewaydriving produces better fueleconomy than city driving.
If the vehicle is low on fuel, theFUEL LEVEL LOW message will bedisplayed. SeeFuel SystemMessages011 5.
