2. Find the vehicle's current
location and variance zone
number on the map.
Zones 1 through 15 are
available.
3. Press

variance zone.
4. Press
3 until the vehicle
heading, for example, N for
North, is displayed in the DIC.

“Compass Calibration
Procedure” following.
Compass Calibration
The compass can be manually
calibrated. Only calibrate the
compass in a magnetically clean
and safe location, such as an open
parking lot, where driving the
vehicle in circles is not a danger.
Also calibrate the compass, away
from tall buildings, utility wires,
manhole covers, or other industrial
structures, if possible.
If the DIC display does not show a
heading, for example, N for North,
or the heading does not change
after making turns, there may be a
strong magnetic field interfering with
the compass. Interference may be
caused by a magnetic antenna
mount, magnetic note pad holder,
or any other magnetic item. Turn off
the vehicle, move the magnetic
item, then turn on the vehicle and
calibrate the compass.
Compass Calibration Procedure
1. Before calibrating the compass,
check that the compass is set to
the correct variance zone. See
“Compass Variance (Zone)
Procedure” earlier in this
section.
Do not operate any switches
such as window, sunroof,
climate controls, seats, etc.
during the calibration procedure.
2. Press
T until PRESS V TO
CALIBRATE COMPASS

3. Press
V to start the compass
calibration.
4. The DIC will display
CALIBRATING DRIVE IN
CIRCLES. Drive the vehicle in
tight circles at less than
8 km/h(5 mph) to complete the
calibration. The DIC will display
CALIBRATION COMPLETE for a
few seconds then returns to the
PRESS
V TO CALIBRATE
COMPASS display.
