Compass Calibration
Press and hold the on/off button to activate the
compass calibration mode. CAL will be displayed in
the compass window on the mirror.
The compass can be calibrated by driving the
vehicle in circles at 5 mph (8 km/h) or less until the
display reads a direction.
If after a few seconds the display does not show a
compass direction, (N for North for example), there
may be a strong magnetic eld interfering with the
compass. Such interference may be caused by a
magnetic antenna mount, note pad holder, or
similar object. If the letter C or CAL appears in the
compass window, the compass may need to be
reset or calibrated.
Compass Variance
Compass variance is the difference between
earth’s magnetic north and true geographic north.
The mirror is set to zone eight upon leaving
the factory. It will be necessary to adjust the
compass to compensate for compass variance
if you live outside zone eight. Under certain
circumstances, such as during a long distance
cross-country trip, it will be necessary to adjustfor compass variance. If not adjusted to account
for compass variance, your compass could
give false readings.
To adjust for compass variance, do the following:
1. Find your current location and variance
zone number on the following zone map.
2. Press and hold the on/off button until the zone
number is displayed. The number shown is
the current zone number.
134

3. Scroll through the zone numbers that appear in
the window on the mirror by pressing the on/off
button. Once you nd your zone number,
release the button. After about four seconds,
the mirror will return to the compass display,
and the new zone number will be set. If C or
CAL appears in the compass window, the
compass may need calibration. See “Compass
Calibration” listed previously.

4. Calibrate the compass as described next.
Compass Calibration
The compass may need calibration if one of the
following occurs:
After approximately ve seconds, the display
does not show a compass heading (N for
North, for example), there may be a strong
magnetic eld interfering with the compass.
Such interference may be caused by a
magnetic antenna mount, magnetic note pad
holder or a similar magnetic item.
The compass does not display the correct
heading and the compass zone variance
is set correctly.In order to calibrate, CAL must be displayed in the
mirror compass windows. If CAL is not displayed,
press and hold the on/off button until CAL is
displayed.
The compass can be calibrated by driving the
vehicle in circles at 5 mph (8 km/h) or less until the
display reads a direction.
Passenger Airbag Indicator
The vehicle may be equipped with a passenger
airbag indicator, on the mirror glass, just above the
buttons. If the vehicle has this feature, the
mirror will display the word ON, or an airbag
symbol in Canada, when the passenger airbag is
enabled. For more information, seePassenger
Sensing System on page 80.
Cleaning the Mirror
When cleaning the mirror, use a paper towel or
similar material dampened with glass cleaner.
Do not spray glass cleaner directly on the mirror
as that may cause the liquid cleaner to enter
the mirror housing.
