The factory default zone is 8. During program-

zone 1.

Calibrating the Compass (Mid Line Cluster Only)

If the compass appears erratic, inaccurate, or abnormal,
you may wish to calibrate it. However, prior to calibrat-
ing the compass, make sure the proper Compass Variance
value is selected.

NOTE:

The vehicle speed must be at 0 mph (0 km/h)

(manual transmission) or the gear selector lever in “P”
(Park) (auto transmission) to enter the calibration mode.

To calibrate the compass, first, start the engine. Next,
press and hold the trip odometer button until the current
variance zone number displays (approximately ten sec-
onds). Then, press and hold the button again until the
direction displays with the “CAL” indicator on continu-
ously (approximately ten seconds). Finally, drive the

vehicle in one or more complete circles, at speeds under
5 mph (8 km/h), in an area free from power lines and
large metallic objects, until the “CAL” indicator turns off.
The compass will now function normally.
