6. Your compass should be calibrated. You will know
Compass Accuracy: Your compass may show different
headings around bridges, power lines, large metal
objects, and steep hills. This is normal and
is true of
compasses in general.
If you put large metal objects like golf clubs in the trunk
they could affect accuracy. If the accuracy is close, the
compass will adapt
to these objects over time.
If you use an antenna with a magnetic base, it is best to
mount it away from the center of the trunk near the rear
window. The
rear defog system can affect accuracy, and
the
compass corrects for the rear defog. However, if the rear
defog is turned on while making sharp turns, the
accuracy may be off. When you turn the rear defog
off
again, the accuracy returns to normal.
Do not turn on the rear defog if you are trying to
calibrate. The system will not allow the calibration. You
will hear the chime, and CALIBRATE will flash for a
few seconds.
Be aware that metal objects are sometimes buried in the
ground. They
can affect accuracy and you may not know
they are there. As an example, many concrete roads
have metal reinforcements inside.
