Zone variation change procedure
The difference between magnetic north and geo-
graphical north is known as variance. In some
areas, this difference can sometimes be great
enough to cause false compass readings. Follow
these instructions to set the variance for your
particular location if this happens:
1. Press and hold the
button for about 8
seconds or the COMP button for about 3
seconds. The current zone number will ap-
pear in the display.
2. Find your current location on the zone map.
Refer to the illustration. Record the zone
number.
3. Press and hold the
or COMP button
until the new zone number appears in the
display. After you stop pressing the switch
in, the display will show a compass direction
within a few seconds.
Inaccurate compass direction
The compass display is equipped with automatic
correction function. If the correct direction is not
shown, follow this procedure.
1. With the display turned on, push the
button about 8 seconds or the COMP but-
ton for about 3 seconds until the zone selec-
tion comes up (a number will be displayed in
the mirror compass window).
2. Toggle until correct zone is found and re-
lease button.
3. The display will return to the normal com-
pass mode within 5 seconds of no button
activity.
4. If the vehicle changes zone, repeat steps 1
through 3. See map.
● If the compass deviates from the correct
indication soon after repeated adjustment,
have the compass checked at an authorized
dealer.
● The compass may not indicate the correct
compass point in tunnels or while driving up
or down a steep hill. (The compass returns
to the correct compass point when the ve-
hicle moves to an area where the geomag-
netism is stabilized.)
CAUTION
● Do not install a ski rack, antenna, etc.,
which are attached to the vehicle by
means of a magnet. They affect the op-
eration of the compass.
● When cleaning the mirror, use a paper
towel or similar material dampened
with glass cleaner. Do not spray glass
cleaner directly on the mirror as it may
cause the liquid cleaner to enter the
mirror housing.
