COMPASS CALIBRATION

Without Message Center

1. NOTE: For optimum calibration, drive to an open, level location away from large metallic objects or structures. Switch off all non-essential electrical accessories (rear window defrost, heater A/C, map lamps, wipers, etc.) and make sure all doors are closed.

Start the vehicle.

2. Locate the compass module at the base of the mirror.







3. NOTE: To exit the CAL mode before carrying out a compass adjustment, turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.

Press and hold the reset button located on the LH top of the compass sensor module until ZONE is displayed in the instrument cluster integrated circuit display. Continue to hold the button down until CAL is displayed and release the button.







4. NOTE: If the CIRCLE SLOWLY display does not turn off after the vehicle is driven in a circle no more than 5 times, demagnetize the vehicle and repeat the procedure.

Slowly drive the vehicle in a circle no more than 5 times at no more than 5 km/h (3 mph) until CAL turns off.
