Compass: Testing and Inspection

Compass Calibration

Note! The illustrations in this service information are used for different model years and/or models. Some variation may occur. However, the essential information in the illustrations is always correct.

Calibration

Setting the geographical area




Ignition on.
Press in the button (1) for at least 3 seconds. The figure for the set range (1-15) is then displayed. See the illustration.




Press the button repeatedly until the number (1-15) for the relevant geographical area is displayed. After approximately 10 seconds the display reverts to the compass direction.






Calibrating the compass





Note! In some cases the compass may need to be calibrated. For example it always needs to be calibrated if the rear view mirror has been replaced or C appears in the display.

Look for a large, open area that is free of traffic, for example a car park or industrial site.
Ignition on.
Press the button (1) for at least 6 seconds, C must now appear in the display.
Then drive slowly (below 10 km/h) in a circle until the compass direction is displayed again (2-3 turns).
The calibration is now complete.
