Calibration Procedure

The compass display is equipped with an automatic correction function. If the compass display reads "C" or the direction is not shown correctly, perform the correction procedure below.

  1. Press and hold the mode (N) switch until the display reads "C".
  2. Drive the vehicle slowly in a circle, in an open, safe place. The initial calibration is completed in about three turns.
NOTE: In places where the terrestrial magnetism is extremely disturbed, the initial correction may start automatically.
