Automatic Compass Calibration
This compass is self-calibrating, which eliminates the need
to set the compass manually. When the vehicle is new, the
compass may appear erratic, and the instrument cluster
display will display “CAL” until the compass is calibrated.
You may also calibrate the compass by completing one or
more 360–degree turns (in an area free from large metal or
metallic objects) until the “CAL” message displayed in the
instrument cluster display turns off. The compass will now
function normally.
NOTE: A good calibration requires a level surface and an
environment free from large metallic objects such as build-
ings, bridges, underground cables, railroad tracks, etc.
Manual Compass Calibration
If the compass appears erratic and the “CAL” indicator
does not appear in the instrument cluster display, you must
put the compass into the Calibration Mode manually as
follows:
1. Start the engine. Leave the gear selector in PARK in
order to enter the instrument cluster display Program-
ming Menus.
2. Push the MENU button until Personal Settings
(Customer-Programmable Features) displays in the in-
strument cluster display.
3. Push the down arrow button until “Calibrate Compass”
displays in the instrument cluster display.
4. Push and release the right arrow button to start the
calibration. The “CAL” indicator will display in the
instrument cluster display.
5. Complete one or more 360–degree turns (in an area free
from large metal or metallic objects) until the “CAL”
indicator turns off. The compass will now function
normally.
