CORRECTION FUNCTIONS OF COMPASS

If the direction is not shown correctly, perform initial correction.

INITIAL CORRECTION PROCEDURE FOR COMPASS

Pushing the “COMP” switch for about 10 seconds will enter the
initial correction mode. The direction bar starts blinking.

Turn off all electrical equipment (turn signals, hazard signal, A/
C, lights, etc.). In a broad, flat, and safe location, drive the vehi-
cle slowly [approximately 5 km/h (3 MPH) or less], and turn the
vehicle 360

or more several times. When the direction appears

on the display, correction is complete.

NOTE:
The correct direction may not be shown in locations where the
earth's magnetic field is disrupted, such as those listed below.

●

Elevated bridges

●

Railroad crossings

●

Streets lined with large buildings

●

Iron bridges

●

Tunnels

●

Locations above subways

●

If display correction is performed in any of the above locations, accurate correction may not be possible.
