- Compass variance is the difference between magnetic North and
geographic North.
- The difference between magnetic and geographic North can be great
enough to cause the compass to give false readings.
- Compass variance is compensated by calibrating the compass.
In order to calibrate the compass successfully, determine the zone number
to be entered into the compass. The mirror is preset to Zone 8. Vehicles sold
in Japan are preset to Zone 9.
- In order to set the compass variance, perform the following steps:
| 4.1. | With the display turned ON, push the COMP button for 3 seconds. |
The Zone selection will show in the mirror compass window.
| 4.2. | Toggle until the correct zone is found. |
| 4.4. | The display will show all segments and return to the normal compass
mode within 10 seconds of no switch activity. |
