Compass Zone Adjustment*
Compass Calibration Zones*

The zone setting is factory set to Zone 8. Check the Compass Calibration Zone map to verify the correct compass zone setting for your geographic location.*
Gently press both buttons for three to four seconds until ZONE is displayed.*
Release the switches. Zone and the current zone setting will be displayed.*
Press either switch to cycle through all possible zone settings. Stop cycling when the correct zone setting for your location is displayed.*
Release the switch to exit the zone setting mode. After five seconds of no button activity, the module will store the current zone and leave the mode
Compass Calibration*
For optimum calibration, turn off all non-essential electrical accessories (rear window defrost, heater/air conditioning, map lamps, wipers, etc.) and make sure all doors are shut.*
Drive to an open, level area away from large metallic objects or structures and high voltage lines.*
Press both buttons for six to eight seconds until CAL is displayed.*
Release both buttons and drive slowly in a circle until CAL disappears from the display (about two to three circles).*
The compass is now calibrated
