Compass Operation

There is a compass display in the upper right corner of the mirror.

Compass Calibration

Press and hold compass calibration to activate the compass calibration mode. CAL displays in the compass window on the mirror.

If after a few seconds the display does not show a compass direction, (N for North for example), there may be a strong magnetic field interfering with the compass.

Interference can be caused by a magnetic antenna mount, note pad holder, or similar object. If CAL displays in the compass window, the compass may need to be reset or calibrated.

The compass can be calibrated by driving the vehicle in circles at 5 mph (8 km/h) or less until the display reads a direction.
