Dodge 2015 Journey - Owner Manual - Manual (Page 337)

NOTE: Keep magnetic materials away from the top of the
instrument panel, such as iPod’s, Mobile Phones, Lap-
tops and Radar Detectors. This is where the compass
module is located, and it can cause interference with the
compass sensor, and it may give false readings.
• Calibration
Press the “Calibration” button on the touchscreen to
change this setting. This compass is self-calibrating,
which eliminates the need to manually reset the compass.
When the vehicle is new, the compass may appear erratic
and the EVIC will display CAL until the compass is
calibrated. You may also calibrate the compass by press-
ing the “ON” button on the touchscreen and completing
one or more 360-degree turns (in an area free from large
metal or metallic objects) until the CAL indicator dis-
played in the EVIC turns off. The compass will now
function normally.
NOTE:
A good calibration requires a level surface and an
environment free from large metallic objects such as
buildings, bridges, underground cables, railroad tracks,
etc.
