Calibrating the compass
The direction display deviates fr om the true direction determined by
the earth’s magnetic field. The amoun t of deviation varies according
to the geographic position of the vehicle.
If you cross over a map boundary shown in the illustration, the compass
will deviate.
To obtain higher precision or perfect calibration, refer to the following.
■ Deviation calibration
Stop the vehicle in a place where it is safe to drive in a circle.
Press and hold “AUTO” for 6
seconds.
A number (1 to 15) appears on
the compass display.
Press “AUTO” and, referring to the map above, select the
number of the zone where you are.
If the direction is displayed several seconds after adjustment, the
