UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 143 Automatic Compass Calibration This compass is self calibrating which eliminates the need to manually set the compass. 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 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. Manual Compass Calibration If the compass appears erratic and the "CAL" message does not appear in the EVIC display, you must put the compass into the Calibration Mode manually. To put into a Calibration Mode: Turn on the ignition switch. Press and hold the compass button for approximately 2 seconds. Use the SCROLL buttons until "Calibrate Compass" is highlighted. Press and release the FUNCTION SELECT button to start the calibration. The message "CAL" will appear in the EVIC. Complete one or more 360° turns in an area free from large metal objects until the "CAL" message turns off. The compass will now function normally. 4
