Compass
The vehicle may have a compass display on
the Driver Information Center (DIC). The

Control (ESC), and vehicle 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.

Truck Bed Power Outlet
When the ignition is on, power is supplied
to the outlets after the DC/AC switch is
pressed. A green indicator light on the
DC/AC switch indicates when the DC/AC
operation is active. One power outlet can be
used with electrical equipment that uses a
maximum of 400 watts. If both outlets are
being used, 400 watts will be shared
between the outlets. Ensure that all
connected devices do not exceed 400 watts.
The power outlet can be turned off by
pressing the DC/AC switch. The power outlet
can be turned back on after 10 seconds,
during which the indicator light on the

no system fault is detected. The outlets will
not operate when the ignition is off, the
DC/AC switch is not pressed, or the plug is
not fully seated into the outlet.
If equipment is connected using more than
400 watts or a system fault is detected, a
protection circuit shuts off the power supply
and the indicator light turns off.
Do not use a power outlet with a missing or
damaged cover.
The power outlet is not designed for the
following, and may not work properly if
they are plugged in:
.Equipment with high initial peak wattage,
such as compressor-driven refrigerators
and electric power tools
.Other equipment requiring an extremely
stable power supply, such as
microcomputer-controlled electric blankets
and touch sensor lamps
.Medical equipment

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.
