Unhappy Odometer shows "CAL"

I held in the trip odometer reset button for too long & now it Displays"CAL" & doesn't advance. How do I get back to an only somewhat innacurate odometer?

Your in compass calibration mode. Page 79 of your owners manual. It will go back to normal if you just drive around a little.

Easiest way is to find a large open parking lot, and go in a big circle until it comes up to the mileage again. I found out the hard way about this, and had to call the dealer to get the answer, but bobbylh is right, it's the compass calibration.
