WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Toyota Avalon. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Turn ignition on. Illuminate all portions of multi-display information center by pushing LIGHT button. See Fig 1. Push MODE button several times until the word COMPASS appears and blinks in calendar display area. Push RESET/ADJ button. The word CALIBRATE should appear and blink with the compass display. See Fig 2.
  2. Drive vehicle in a circle until the blinking word CALIBRATE stops. When compass and calendar display return to normal, calibration is complete. If there is not enough room to safely drive vehicle in a circle, drive around the block. Do not operate any power accessory (moon roof, power windows, etc.) during calibration process.
