Operation
Rearview mirror with compass.
The upper right-hand corner of the rearview
mirror has an integrated display that shows
the compass direction in which the front of
the car is pointing. Eight different directions
are shown with English abbreviations:
N
(north), NE (north east), E (east), SE (south
east),
S (south), SW (south west), W (west)
and
NW (north west).
The compass is activated automatically
when the car is started or in ignition
position II. To deactivate/activate the com-
pass, use a paper clip for example and press
in the button on the rear side of the mirror.
Calibration
Calibrating the compass.
The compass may need calibrating to work
correctly.
CAL is shown in the mirror’s dis-
play if the compass needs calibrating.
1. Stop the car in a large open area.
2. Start the car.
3. Press and hold the button on the rear of
the rearview mirror (use a paper clip or
similar) until
CAL is shown again (ap-
prox. 6 seconds).
4. Drive off as usual.
CAL disappears from
the display when calibration is com-
plete.
Alternative calibration method:
Drive slowly in a circle at a speed of no
more than eight km/h until
CAL disap-
pears from the display when calibration
is complete.
Selecting the zone
Magnetic zones.
The earth is divided into 15 magnetic zones.
The correct zone must be selected for the
compass to work correctly.
1. Ignition position II.
2. Press and hold the button on the rear of
the rearview mirror (use a paper clip or
similar) for at least 3 seconds. The
number for the current area is shown.
3. Press the button repeatedly until the
number for the required geographic
area (1–15) is shown.
4. The display will revert to showing the
compass direction after a few seconds.
