Calibrating the compassThe 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 illustration, the compass will
deviate.
To obtain higher precision or perfect calibration, refer to the following.
■Deviation calibration
Stop the vehicle where it is safe to drive in a circle.
Press the SET button
until a number (1 to 15)
appears on the outside
temperature display.
Press the E/M button,
and referring to the map
above, select the num-
ber of the zone where
you are.
