Press the Variance button on the touchscreen to
change this display. Compass Variance is the difference
between Magnetic North and Geographic North. To
compensate for the differences the variance should be
set for the zone where the vehicle is driven, per the

matically compensate for the differences, and provide
the most accurate compass heading.NOTE:
Keep magnetic materials away from the top of
the instrument panel, such as iPod's, Mobile Phones,
Laptops and Radar Detectors. This is where the com-
pass module is located, and it can cause interference
with the compass sensor, and it may give false readings.
