      The SET, INFO and RESET buttons are generally found on the dash, to the right of the steering column.

      With the engine running, hold the INFO button for about 2 seconds, until the Compass/Odometer function. (Don't select trip, DTE or AFE! The top of the message center must be blank.)

    • 2). Set your magnetic zone. Reference the zone map to determine your magnetic zone. Press and hold RESET until it displays the current zone. Release the RESET button, then press again to change the current zone. Press SET repeatedly until the correct zone is displayed, then RESET again to exit.

    • 3). Begin the calibration process. Press RESET again to enter the calibration process. You should see "Circle slowly to calibrate" in the message window.

    • 4). Drive the car VERY slowly in possibly up to three circles to calibrate. (About 3 MPH or slower.) When the calibration is complete a message will be displayed: "Calibration completed".
