Calibrating the Automatic Day-Night Mirror Compass using the AUTOCAL
Feature
The automatic day-night mirror has an AUTOCAL compass which automatically
calibrates, during normal driving conditions, in order to prevent the vehicle's
unique magnetic fields from causing the mirror to display the wrong
compass direction. During calibration, the letter "C"
displays. Calibration is completed when the "C" changes
to the correct directional heading. Once calibrated, the mirror
does not need to be recalibrated. When you turn the ignition
switch to the OFF position, calibration does not change.
Calibrating the Automatic Day-Night Mirror Compass Manually
- If the letter "C" should ever appear in the compass
window, the mirror may need calibration. The mirror can be calibrated in one
of 2 ways:
• | Drive the vehicle in complete circles (360 degrees) at
5 mph (8 km/h) or less until the display reads a direction. |
• | Drive the vehicle on your everyday routine. |
- The mirror is set at zone 8 upon leaving the factory. If
you are outside zone 8, adjust the compass in order to
compensate for the compass variance.
- Press and hold the COMPASS button located at the bottom of the
mirror until a zone number appears in the display.
- Find your current location and variance zone number.
- Press the COMPASS button on the bottom of the mirror until the
zone number appears in the display. After you stop pressing the button, the
display will show a compass direction within a few seconds. This
is the automatic calibration mode. Drive in a circle in order
to calibrate the mirror. Refer to Step 1.
