Compass Calibration - Without Message Center

NOTE: For optimum calibration, drive to an open, level location away from large metallic objects or structures. Switch off all non-essential electrical accessories (heated rear window, heater, A/C, map lamps, wiper, etc.) and make sure all the doors are closed.

Start the vehicle.
Locate the reset button on the top of the compass module at the base of the interior rear view mirror.

Press and hold the reset button for 8 seconds and release when CAL appears in the instrument cluster display.

NOTE: This step may require up to 5 circles to complete the calibration.

Slowly drive the vehicle in a circle at no more than 5 km/h (3 mph) until CAL turns off in the instrument cluster display.
