Calibration of the compass should be done in an area free of steel superstructures and power lines. All electrical consumers (e.g. exterior lamps, climate control, rear window defroster etc.) should be switched off, doors and liftgate closed. Do not open or close the roof.

Press RESET key and afterwards press MODE key, "CAL-" appears in the display. 4. Press and hold RESET key for a minimum of 2 seconds, to access the calibration mode. The display shows "CAL". 5. Without interruption drive two full circles at a speed between 3 mph (5 km/h) and 7 mph (10 km/h). The message "CAL" goes out after a short time. 6. The calibration of the compass is now complete.

Insert key, start the vehicle and start the calibration procedure. We recommend that you have the compass calibrated at a Mercedes-Benz Light Truck Center.
