Compass calibration
1. For optimum calibration, switch off all
nonessential electrical accessories (rear
window defogger, heater/air conditioning
system, spotlight, etc.) and ensure all
doors are shut.
2. Drive to an open, level area away from
large metallic objects or structures and
make certain the ignition switch is in the “ ON ” position.
3. Press and hold the left button for 3 sec-
onds then release, and the compass will
enter the calibration mode. “CAL ” and di-
rection will be displayed.
4. Drive slowly in a circle until “CAL ” dis-
appears from the display (approximately
two or three circles). The compass is now
calibrated.
5. Further calibration may be necessary
should outside. Influences cause the mir-
ror to read inaccurately. You will know that
this has occurred if your compass begins
to read in only limited directions. Should
you encounter this situation, return to step
one of the above procedure and recali-
brate the mirror.
Compass zone adjustment
Compass calibration zones
1. The zone setting is factory preset to
Zone 8. Refer to the “Compass calibration
zone ” map shown above or one attached
to the end of this manual to verify that the
compass zone setting is correct for your
geographical location.
2. Press and hold the right button for 3
seconds then release, and the word“ ZONE ” will briefly appear and then the
zone number will be displayed.
3. Press the right-hand button repeatedly
to cycle the display through all possible

Objects look smaller in a convex
mirror and farther away than when
viewed in a flat mirror. Do not use
the convex mirror to judge the dis-
tance of vehicles behind you when
changing lanes. Use the inside mir-
ror (or glance backwards) to deter-
mine the actual size and distance of
objects that you view in convex mir-
ror.

Manual tuning (TUNE)
Push the “ ” side of the tuning button
(3) to increase the tuning frequency and
press the “ ” side of the button to de-
crease it.
Each time the button is pressed, the fre-
quency changes 10 KHz in the AM wave-
band and 0.2 MHz in the FM waveband.
Constant pressure on the button causes a
continuous change in the frequency.
Automatic tuning (SCAN)
Press the “SCAN ” button (1) to change the
radio to the SCAN mode. In this mode, the
radio scans through the radio band until a
station is found. The radio will stop at the
station for five seconds while displaying
the frequency, after which scanning will
continue until the entire band has been
scanned from the low end to the high end.
Press the “SCAN ” button again to cancel
the SCAN mode and to stop on any dis-
played frequency.
When the “SCAN ” button is pressed for
automatic tuning, stations are scanned in
the direction of low frequencies to high fre-
quencies only.
Automatic tuning may not function proper-
ly if the station reception is weakened by
distance from the station or proximity to
tall buildings and hills.
Selecting preset stations
Presetting a station with a “Preset ” button
(5) allows you to select that station in a
single operation. Up to six AM, FM1 and
FM2 stations each may be preset.
How to preset stations
1. Press the “FM/AM ” selection button to
select AM, FM1 or FM2 reception.
2. Press the “SCAN ” button (1) or tune
the radio manually until the desired station
frequency is displayed.
3. Press one of the “Preset ” buttons (5)
for at least 2 seconds to store the fre-
quency. The frequency of the station will
flash once on the display at this time. If the
button is pressed for less than 2 seconds,
the preceding selection will remain in
memory.
NOTE
If the connection between the radio
and battery is broken for any reason
such as vehicle maintenance or radio
removal, all stations stored in the pre-
set buttons are cleared. If this occurs,
it is necessary to reset the preset but-
tons.
If a cell phone is placed near the ra-
dio, it may cause the radio to emit
noise when it receives calls. This noise
does not indicate a radio fault.
