Automatic Compass Calibration
This compass is self-calibrating, which reduces the need
to calibrate the compass manually. When the vehicle is
new, the compass may appear erratic and the EVIC will
display “CAL” until the compass is calibrated. You may
also calibrate the compass by completing one or more
360° turns at speeds less than 5 mph (km/h)(in an area
free from large metal or metallic objects) until the “CAL”
message displayed in the EVIC turns off. The compass
will now function normally.
Manual Compass Calibration
