Calibrating the digital compass
The digital compass must be calibrated in the
following situations:
> The incorrect cardinal direction is displayed.
> The direction that is displayed does not
change even though the driving direction
changes.
> Not all cardinal directions are displayed.
Procedure
1. Make sure that there are no large metal
objects or overhead power lines near your
vehicle, and that you have enough space to
drive in circles.
2. Set the compass zone that currently applies.
3. Press the setting button approx.
6-7 seconds to call up C. Then drive in a
complete circle at a maximum speed of
4 mph/7 km/h.
If the calibration is successful, the C will be
replaced by the directions.
Setting right/left-hand drive
Your digital compass is already set to right-hand
drive or left-hand drive at the factory, depend-
ing upon your vehicle.
Setting the language
You can set the language on the display:
Press the setting button for approx.
12-13 seconds. Briefly press the setting button
again to switch between English "E" and
German "O".
The setting is automatically stored after approx.
10 seconds.
