Calibration procedure

The compass may not indicate the
correct compass direction when you
are driving in certain areas (tunnel,
parking garage, underground park-
ing lot, near transformer substation,
etc.), and the following may occur:
• The display read "C".
• The compass headings become

inaccurate.

• The compass heading doesn't

change when the vehicle changes
direction.

• Some compass headings are not

displayed.

• The compass headings are inaccu-

rate in long distance driving.

The compass will automatically re-
calibrate itself while you drive your
every day route, after the system
tracks the vehicle has completed
three complete circles.

If the vehicle's compass headings
become inaccurate continuously, the
compass should be manually cali-
brated as follows:
1) Move the vehicle away from any

large steel structures or power
generating cables or equipment.

2) Turn on the compass by pressing

the ON/OFF button.

3) Check the zone number by press-

ing the ON/OFF button for 6~9
seconds until the current zone
number appears in the display. To
re-calibrate, hold the ON/OFF but-
ton for 9~12 seconds until C is dis-
played.
If the zone number is different for
your country, set the correct zone
number referring to "Setting the
compass zone" and perform the
"Calibration procedure" again.
