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 differ-

ences and provide the most accurate compass heading.

NOTE:

Magnetic materials should be kept away from

the top of the right rear quarter window. This is where

the compass sensor is located.
