Compass / Temperature Display

The compass readings indicate the direction the vehicle is
facing. The EVIC will display one of eight compass
readings and the outside temperature.

NOTE:

The system will display the last known outside

temperature when starting the vehicle and may need to
be driven several minutes before the updated tempera-
ture is displayed. Engine temperature can also affect the
displayed temperature; therefore, temperature readings
are not updated when the vehicle is not moving.

Automatic Compass Calibration

This compass is self-calibrating, which eliminates the
need to manually reset the compass. When the vehicle is
new, the compass may appear erratic until it is calibrated.
You may also calibrate the compass by completing one or
more 360–degree turns (in an area free from large metal
or metallic objects). 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.

Manual Compass Calibration

If the compass appears erratic and the CAL indicator
does not appear in the EVIC display, you must put the
compass into the Calibration Mode manually, as follows:

1. Turn ON the ignition switch.

2. Press the UP or DOWN button until the System Setup

(Customer-Programmable Features) menu is reached,
then press the SELECT button.

3. Press the DOWN button until “Calibrate Compass” is

displayed in the EVIC then press and release the
SELECT button.
