After setting the Oil Life Start Value, press and release the SELECT/RESET control switch for the next SETUP MENU item or wait for more than four seconds to return to the INFO MENU. Note: Oil Life Start Value of 100% equals 7,500 miles (12,000 km) or six months. For example, setting Oil Life Start Value to 60% sets the Oil Life Start Value to 3,000 miles (4,800 km) and 120 days. Compass display (if equipped) The compass heading is displayed as one of N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W and NW in the message center display. The compass reading may be affected when you drive near large buildings, bridges, power lines and powerful broadcast antenna. Magnetic or metallic objects placed in, on or near the vehicle may also affect compass accuracy. Usually, when something affects the compass readings, the compass will correct itself after a few days of operating your vehicle in normal conditions. If the compass still appears to be inaccurate, a manual calibration may be necessary. Refer to Compass zone adjustment. NOTE: Your vehicle may be equipped with a reset button in the rearview mirror used to adjust the compass zone or it may use the SELECT/RESET stem located in the instrument cluster. Choose the proper procedure following as appropriate for your vehicle. Most geographic areas (zones) have a magnetic north compass point that varies slightly from the northerly direction on maps. This variation is up to four degrees between adjacent zones and will become noticeable as the vehicle crosses multiple zones. A correct zone setting will eliminate this error. Refer to Compass calibration adjustment. NOTE: Your vehicle may be equipped with a reset button in the rearview mirror used to adjust the compass calibration or it may use the SELECT/RESET stem located in the instrument cluster. Choose the proper procedure following as appropriate for your vehicle. 127
