Compass display (if equipped)
The compass reading may be
affected when you drive near large
buildings, bridges, power lines and
powerful broadcast antenna.
Magnetic or metallic objects placed
in, on or near the vehicle may also
affect compass accuracy.
Usually, when something affects the
compass readings, the compass will
correct itself after a few days of operating your vehicle in normal
conditions. If the compass still appears to be inaccurate, a manual
calibration may be necessary. Refer toCompass calibration adjustment.
Most geographic areas (zones) have a magnetic north compass point that
varies slightly from the northerly direction on maps. This variation is four
degrees between adjacent zones and will become noticeable as the
vehicle crosses multiple zones. A correct zone setting will eliminate this
error. Refer toCompass zone adjustment.

with the fuel remaining in your tank
under normal driving conditions.
Remember to turn the ignition OFF
when refueling your vehicle.
Otherwise, the display will not show
the addition of fuel for a few
kilometers (miles).
At least 9.5 liters (2.5 gallons) of fuel must be added for DTE to
immediately show new distance.
