Compass Variance
Compass Variance is the difference between Magnetic

North and Geographic North. To compensate for the

differences, the variance should be set for the zone where

the vehicle is driven, per the zone map. Once properly

set, the compass will automatically compensate for the

differences and provide the most accurate compass head-

ing.
NOTE:

Keep magnetic materials away from the top of the

instrument panel, such as iPod’s, Mobile Phones, Lap-

tops and Radar Detectors. This is where the compass

module is located, and it can cause interference with the

compass sensor, and it may give false readings.
