HONDA 2010 CR-V - Manual (Page 267)

If you see ‘‘ ’’ in the direction
display when you turn the ignition
switch to the ON (II) position, the
compass is self-calibrating.
The compass may need to be
manually calibrated after exposure to
a strong magnetic field. If the
compass display changes to ‘‘
’’
and the calibrate indicator blinks, or
the display does not show any
direction and the compass is not self-
calibrating, do the following.
Do this procedure in an open
area, away from buildings, power
lines, and other vehicles.
In most areas, there is a variation
between magnetic north and true
north. Zone selection is required so
the compass can compensate for this
variation. To check and select the
zone, do this:
Drive the vehicle slowly in three
complete circles.
When the display goes from
‘‘
’’ or blank to an actual
heading, the unit is calibrated and
the display returns to normal.
Press and hold the select/reset
knob for 10 seconds to change the
display to the reset mode.
