NOTICEPerform the calibration procedure for a
new vehicle as follows.Calibration procedureThe compass may not indicate the cor-
rect compass direction when you are
driving in certain areas (tunnels, parking
garages, underground parking lots, near
transformer substations, etc.), and the
following may occur:
The compass headings become inac-
curate.
The compass heading doesn't change
when the vehicle changes direction.
Some compass headings are not dis-
played.
The compass headings are inaccurate
in long distance driving.
If the vehicle's compass headings
become inaccurate continuously, the
compass should be manually calibrated
as follows:1. Move the vehicle away from any large
steel structures or power generating
cables or equipment and into a safe
open location, such as an abandoned
parking lot.
2. Check the terrestrial deviation angle
value by pressing and holding the
MODE button for 4.5 seconds until the
current terrestrial deviation angle
value appears in the display.
3. If the terrestrial deviation angle value
is different for your country, set the cor-
rect angle referring to “Setting the
compass zone” and perform the
“Calibration procedure” again.
4. Make sure the vehicle windshield
wipers are turned off.5. Press and hold the MODE button
again for 2~4.5 seconds until the “turn”
appears and “DIR” blinks in the display
and release the button.
6. Drive your vehicle in at least 1 com-
plete (either clockwise or counter-
clockwise) circle at less than 3 mph (5
km/h) within 10 minutes until the com-
pass heading appears.
7. If the vehicle’s compass headings
become inaccurate again, repeat
steps 1 through 6 above.
✽ ✽
NOTICEIf you press the MODE button before
the calibration is completed or the vehi-
cle is not rotated within 10 minutes after
“turn” appears and “DIR” blinks, the
correction will be cancelled.

flash or if it flashes abnormally, one of the
turn signal bulbs may be burned out and
will require replacement.✽ ✽
NOTICEIf an indicator flash is abnormally quick
or slow, a bulb may be burned out or
there may be a poor electrical connec-
tion in the circuit.
Front fog light (if equipped) Fog lights are used to provide improved
visibility and avoid accidents when visibil-
ity is poor due to fog, rain or snow etc.

NOTICEIf there is heavy accumulation of snow
or ice on the windshield, defrost the
windshield for about 10 minutes, or
until the snow and/or ice is removed
before using the windshield wipers to
ensure proper operation.
Auto control (if equipped)The rain sensor located on the upper end
of windshield glass senses the amount of
rainfall and controls the wiping cycle for
the proper intervals. The more it rains,
the faster the wiper operates. When the
rain stops, the wiper stops. To vary the
speed setting, turn the speed control
knob (1).
If the wiper switch is set in AUTO mode
when the ignition switch is ON, or the
speed control knob is turned toward the
upward position when the wiper switch is
in AUTO mode, wiper will operate once to
perform a self-check of the system. Set
the wiper to OFF position when the wiper
is not in use.
OVQ037052N-1
CAUTION
When washing the vehicle, set the
wiper switch in the OFF position
to stop the auto wiper operation.
The windshield wipers may oper-
ate and be damaged if the switch
is set in AUTO mode while wash-
ing vehicle.
Do not remove the sensor cover
located on the upper end of the
passenger side windshield glass.
Damage to system parts could
occur and may not be covered by
your vehicle warranty.
When the starting the vehicle in
winter, set the wiper switch in the

front of the engine compartment on the
passenger side (see page 6-20).

Maintenance24 6WIPER BLADES Maintenance Commercial hot waxes applied by
automatic car washes have been
known to make the windshield diffi-
cult to clean.Contamination of either the windshield or
the wiper blades with foreign matter can
reduce the effectiveness of the wind-
shield wipers. Common sources of con-
tamination are insects, tree sap, and hot
wax treatments used by some commer-
cial car washes. If the blades are not wip-
ing properly, clean both the window and
the blades with a good cleaner or mild
detergent, and rinse thoroughly with
clean water.
Replacement When the wipers no longer clean ade-
quately, the blades may be worn or
cracked, and require replacement.

CAUTION
To prevent damage to the wiper
blades, do not use gasoline,
kerosene, paint thinner, or other
solvents on or near them.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the wiper
arms or other components, do not
attempt to move the wipers manual-
ly.
CAUTION
The use of a non-specified wiper
blade could result in wiper malfunc-
tion and failure.
