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 in a level place.
Switch the trip information display to the outside temperature.
( P. 182)
Press and hold both the “MODE”
and “E/M” buttons simulta-
neously for 5 seconds until the
“VAR” indication and a number
(1 to 15) appears on the com-
pass display.

Press the “E/M” button, 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
calibration is complete.
■
Circling calibration
When the direction display may not change after a turn, the com-
pass needs to be calibrated.
Stop the vehicle in a level place where it is safe to drive in a
circle. Press and hold both the “MODE”
and “E/M” buttons simulta-
neously for 10 seconds until the
“CAL” indication appears on the
compass display. (At this time,
the compass display is locked in
“N”.)
Drive the vehicle at 5 mph
(8 km/h) or less in a circle until
“CAL” indicator goes off and the
compass returns to the normal
mode.
If there is not enough space to
drive in a circle, drive around the
block until “CAL” indicator goes
off and the compass returns to
the normal mode.

■Conditions unfavorable to correct operation
The compass may not show the correct direction in the following conditions:
●The vehicle is stopped immediately after turning.
● The vehicle is on an inclined surface.
● The vehicle is in a place where the earth's magnetic field is subject to
interference by artificial magnetic fields (underground car park/parking
lot, under a steel tower, between buildings, roof car park/parking lot, near
an intersection, near a large vehicle, etc.).
● The vehicle has become magnetized.
(There is a magnet or metal object near the trip information display.)
● The battery has been disconnected.
● A door is open.
CAUTION
■While driving the vehicle
Do not adjust the display. Be sure to adjust the display only when the vehicle
is stopped.
■ When doing the circling calibration
Be sure to secure a wide space, and watch out for people and vehicles in the
neighborhood. Do not violate any local traffic rules while performing circling
calibration.
NOTICE
■To avoid a compass malfunctions
Do not place magnets or any metal objects near the roof of the vehicle.
Doing this may cause a malfunction of the compass sensor.
■ To ensure normal operation of the compass
●Do not perform circling calibration of the compass in a place where the
earth's magnetic field is subject to interference by artificial magnetic fields.
● During calibration, do not operate electric systems (moon roof, power win-
dows, etc.) as they may interfere with the calibration.
