Compass direction compensation:

1. Correct earth magnetism to allow the compass to operate normally.

The Centre Unit displays "COMPASS.ADJUST/COMP.ADJ" and enters the earth magnetism
direction setup verification mode.

2. Press the

4 or ¢ button. Automatic compensation starts. Upon entering automatic

compensation, turn the vehicle 360 degrees.
The compensation time lasts less than two minutes. (Compensation may not be achievable if
the vehicle does not finish turning 360 degrees within two minutes.)
If compensation is completed, the Centre Unit displays "OK".

• If compensation fails, the Centre Unit displays "NG".(If the correction results in "NG", previous correction values remain

as they are. )

• In Adjusting, if you press the

4 button or the ¢ button, this will forcibly render the status NG, and you will only be

able to change the Direction Compensation setting.

• When compensating earth magnetism, be sure

to operate the switch while stopped.

• When compensating earth magnetism, set the

steering angle at start and end to 0 (straight)
degree.

• If there is no location to revolve 360 degrees,

follow the procedure shown in the following
diagram. However, never make u-turns in heavy
traffic or at intersections since they are
dangerous.

3. About direction compensation

North on the map may not be exactly the same as magnetic pole north in some areas. To
compensate for this discrepancy, find the current region on the map in Figure 1(See back
cover), then set the value entered in for this region.

Press the

4 or ¢ button to perform ±20-degree direction compensation.

O –15 O –10 O –5 O 0 O +5 O +10 O +15 O +20

The factory default is 0.

Target directions setup:

When you select the target direction by switching direction steps, specify the target direction.
Target direction can be specified from 8 or 16 directions.
