Outside Air Temperature Indicator Calibration: Calibration
The outside air temperature indicator's displayed temperature can be recalibrated ±5°F (±3°C) to meet the customer's expectations.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
- Push and hold the INFORMATION (↑) or (↓) button for at least 3 seconds to enter the customizing mode.
- While in the customizing mode, select the "CHG SETTING", and enter the "METER SETUP." Then select the "ADJUST OUTSIDE TEMP. DISPLAY", and calibrate the value with the SEL/RESET switch and the INFORMATION (↑) / (↓) switch.
- When the desired correction value appears on the display, release the button, and the recalibrated outside air temperature will be displayed.
Example: Incorrect value = 68°F (20°C) Desired correction value = +2°F (+1°C) Correct value = 70°F (21°C) Desired correction value = -2°F (-1°C) Correct value = 66°F (19°C)
NOTE:
- The recalibration temperature is not the value the sensor sees.
Therefore the temperature can only be adjusted ±5 degrees from sensors.
- To recalibrate the display to the true temperature, remove the outside air temperature sensor (A), but leave it connected. Submerge the sensor and a thermometer (B) in a container of ice water (C). Select the calibration mode as described above, then recalibrate the display to the true temperature.
- The snow mark is displayed when the temperature is 37°F (3°C) or less the first time you turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
