compass receives its heading
and other information from
the Global Positioning

speed information.
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
a GPS signal is restored and
provide a heading again.

clips, or cards, between the
smartphone and charger
may become very hot.
On the rare occasion that
the charging system does
not detect an object, and
the object gets wedged
between the smartphone
and charger, remove the
smartphone and allow the
object to cool before
removing it from the
charger, to prevent burns.
To charge a compatible

overheated. Remove the
smartphone and any
objects from the charger in
order to cool the system.
The smartphone may become
warm during charging. This is
normal. In warmer
temperatures, the speed of
charging may be reduced.
For vehicles with wireless
phone projection, the
smartphone may overheat
during wireless charging. The
smartphone may slow down,
stop charging, or shut down to
protect the battery. The
phone may need to be
removed from its case to

Warning Lights,
Gauges, and
Indicators
Warning lights and gauges can
signal that something is wrong
before it becomes serious
enough to cause an expensive
repair or replacement. Paying
attention to the warning lights
and gauges could prevent
injury.

Some warning lights come on
briefly when the engine is
started to indicate they are
working. When one of the
warning lights comes on and
stays on while driving, or when
one of the gauges shows
there may be a problem, check
the section that explains what
to do. Waiting to do repairs
can be costly and even
dangerous.Instrument Cluster
