SELECTING COMPASS DISPLAY MODE

The mode select switch allows you to select a Display or Non–display mode of the compass.
2.

SETTING ZONE

Deviation between the magnetic north and ”actual north” differs depending on the terrestrial location, there-
fore, an adjustment in magnetism is required. Since the magnetic condition differs according to the area
where the vehicle will be used, it is necessary for each user to set the zone. (Refer to ”Compass Zone Map”).
The zone setting can be changed using the E/M switch of the display.
3.

PERFORMING CALIBRATION

Because each vehicle has its own magnetic field, calibration should be performed for each vehicle. This com-
pass function is used when storing the record of the vehicle’s magnetic field.
4.

WHEN COMPASS MAGNETIZED:

A compass could be magnetized during shipping by vessels or freight cars. Before delivery, therefore, make
sure to perform calibration and ensure that calibration can be done. If it cannot be done (cannot complete
in spite of driving round several times), it may be caused by magnetization. Demagnetize the vehicle using
a demagnetizer and perform calibration again.

ZONE SETTING MODE

(a)

Turn the ignition switch ON.

(b)

Keep pressing the E/M switch and MODE switch for 5 sec. when outer temperature is displayed, will
activate zone setting mode, showing a number (1–15) on the compass display.

HINT:
In the initial status, ”8” is displayed.
(c)

The displayed number increases +1 every time the E/M switch is pressed. Referring to the map, check
the number for the area where the vehicle will be used and set the zone number.

(d)

Leave it untouched for several seconds after setting and check that the compass display shows an
azimuthal direction (N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, or NW) or ”VAR”.

7.

CALIBRATION SETTING MODE

(a)

After the set zone is displayed, if the E/M switch and MODE switch remains pressed for another 5 se-
conds, calibration setting mode will be activated.

(b)

Keep pressing the E/M switch and MODE switch for 10 sec. when outer temperature is displayed will
also activate this mode.

(c)

Drive the vehicle at a speed of 5 MPH (8 km/h) or less in a circle.

(d)

Driving in a circle 1 to 3 times will display the azimuthal direction on the display, completing the calibra-
tion.

HINT:
Once calibration is completed, it is not necessary to perform the above procedures unless the magnetic field
strength is drastically changed. If this happens, the azimuthal display will be changed to ”CAL”.
