compass heading on the left hand side of the DIC. The compass will display the current vehicle direction relative to one of 8 compass headings using N,NE,E,SE,S,SW,W, and NW for the readout. The ambient temperature also displays on the DIC. If the ambient temperature is below

two minutes. If the temperature is less than minus
40°F for more than
2 seconds, OC will display. If the temperature is above
140°F for more than
2 seconds, SC will be displayed. For compass calibration and compass magnetic variation adjustment refer to Electronic Compass Calibration.
