FORD 2005 Explorer v.1 - Manual (Page 81)

ELECTRONIC COMPASS/TEMPERATURE DISPLAY (IF EQUIPPED)
OUTSIDE AIR TEMPERATURE
The outside temperature display is
contained in the instrument cluster
and displays all the time. If
equipped with the DEATC climate
control system, the outside
temperature will be displayed there.
For more information, refer to Dual
automatic temperature control (DATC) in the Climate Controls
chapter
To turn the display off or change the display from English to metric see
your dealer.
Compass
The compass reading may be affected when you drive near large
buildings, bridges, power lines and powerful broadcast antennas.
Magnetic or metallic objects placed in, on or near the vehicle may also
affect compass accuracy.
Usually, when something affects the compass readings, the compass will
correct itself after a few days of operating your vehicle in normal
conditions. If the compass still appears to be inaccurate, a manual
calibration may be necessary. Refer to Compass calibration adjustment
in this section.
Most geographic areas (zones) have a magnetic north compass point that
varies slightly from the northerly direction on maps. This variation is four
degrees between adjacent zones and will become noticeable as the
vehicle crosses multiple zones. A correct zone setting will eliminate this
error. Refer to Compass zone adjustment in this section.
