This unit measures terrestrial magnetism and indicates heading direction of vehicle.
With the ignition switch in the ON position, press
the button as described in the
chart below
to activate various features of the automatic antiglare
rearview mirror.
For more information about the automatic antiglare feature, refer to “Automatic anti-glare rearview mirror” in the “Pre-driving checks and adjustments” section.
Compass display
Push the button for about 1
second when
the ignition switch is placed in the ON position to
toggle the compass direction display 1 on or
off. The display will indicate the direction that the
vehicle is heading.
N: North
E: East
S: South
W: West
If the display reads “C”, calibrate the compass by driving the vehicle in three complete circles at less than 5 MPH (8 km/h).
You can also calibrate the compass by driving your vehicle on your everyday route. The compass will be calibrated once it has tracked three complete circles.
Zone variation change procedure
The difference between magnetic north and geographical north is known as variance. In some areas, this difference can sometimes be great enough to cause false compass readings. Follow these instructions to set the variance for your particular location if this happens:
Refer to the illustration.
Inaccurate compass direction:
The compass display is equipped with automatic correction function. If the correct direction is not shown, follow this procedure.
