UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 173 • "UNIT IN > U.S./METRIC" - The EVIC odometer can be changed between English and Metric units of measure. To make your selection, press and release the RESET button until "US" or "METRIC" appears. • "COMPASS VARIANCE > 8" - Press the RESET button to change the compass variance setting. Set this to your current location. If you change location, change your variance according to your variance on the variance map. Refer to Compass Variance Map in this section. • "COMPASS CALIBRATE > YES" - Press the RESET button to manually calibrate the compass. Refer to Manual Compass Calibration in this section. Compass/Temperature Button Pressing the Compass/Temperature button will return the display to the normal compass/ temperature display. NOTE: Temperature accuracy can be affected from heat soak. For best accuracy, the vehicle should be driven at a speed greater than 20 mph (32 km/h) for several minutes. Automatic Compass Calibration This compass is self-calibrating, which reduces the need to calibrate the compass manually. 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 completing one or more 360° turns at speeds less than 5 mph (8 km/h) (in an area free from large metal or metallic objects) until the "CAL" message displayed in the EVIC turns off. The compass will now function normally. 3
