To reset all resettable functions, press and release the
RESET button a second time within three seconds of
resetting the currently displayed function (Reset ALL will
display during this three-second window).
Compass Display
The compass heading indicates the direction
the vehicle is facing. Press and release the
compass button to display one of eight com-
pass heading and the outside temperature.
Automatic Compass Calibration
This compass is self-calibrating, which eliminates the
need to calibrate the compass manually. When the ve-
hicle is new, the compass may appear erratic and the
EVIC will flash the CAL indicator until the compass is
calibrated. You may calibrate the compass by completing
one or more 360° turns (in an area free from large metal
or metallic objects) until the CAL indicator in the EVIC
turns off. The compass will now function normally.
Manual Compass Calibration
If the compass appears erratic, inaccurate, or abnormal,
you may wish to calibrate the compass manually. How-
ever, prior to calibrating the compass, make sure the
proper Compass Variance value is selected (Refer to
“Compass Variance” for additional information). Then
continue to calibrate the compass as follows:
1. Start the engine. Leave the shift lever in PARK in order
to enter the EVIC Programming Menus.
2. Press and release the MENU Button until “Personal
Settings” displays in the EVIC.
3. Press and release the STEP button until “Calibrate
Compass Yes” displays in the EVIC.
4. Press and release the RESET Button and the CAL
indicator will quit flashing.
