User Guide

The compass is self-calibrating, so it does not need
to be manually set. However, if C (Calibration) is
displayed, the compass will need to be calibrated.
You may also place the compass in a noncalibrated
mode by pressing and holding the MODE and USMET
buttons simultaneously while in the COMP/TEMP
mode. After about
10 seconds, the compass will display
C and you can release the buttons. Drive the vehicle
in
a complete 360" circle three times at a speed of less
than 5 mph (8 km/h), and the compass will function
normally. Once the calibration is complete, the display
will return to a compass reading.
Variance is the difference between magnetic north and
geographic north.

the two can be great enough to cause false compass
readings.

set the variance for your particular location:

number. When
it does, release both buttons.

on the display.
