  2. Start the engine but leave the vehicle in "PARK".
  3. Press and hold the COMPASS/TEMP  push button for approximately 10 seconds until the "VAR" menu is displayed in the Compass Mini Trip Computer (CMTC) display (23).
    NOTE:

    During programming, the Zone value will wrap around from Zone 15 to Zone 1.

    NOTE:

    The US/Metric display will change from English to Metric or Metric to English before the "VAR" symbol appears, however, it will return back to the original US/Metric setting after programming the compass variance.

  4. To change the zone, press and release the COMPASS/TEMP  push button to increment the variance one step. Repeat as necessary until the desired variance is achieved. When the correct zone is displayed, wait approximately 15 seconds. The CMTC will store the new variance value in memory and the compass will resume normal operation.
  5. Confirm that the correct directions are now indicated by the compass.
