Calibration Procedure for Compass




The difference between magnetic North and geographical North can sometimes be great enough to cause false compass readings. In order for the compass to operate accurately in a particular zone, it must be calibrated using the procedure given.

CORRECTION FUNCTIONS OF COMPASS




The direction display is equipped with automatic correction function.
If the direction is not shown correctly, carry out initial correction.

INITIAL CORRECTION PROCEDURE FOR COMPASS
1. Pushing the Mode switch for about 10 seconds will enter the initial correction mode. The compass display will begin to flash.
2. Turn the vehicle slowly in an open, safe place. The initial correction is completed in approximately three turns.

NOTE: In places where the terrestrial magnetism is extremely disturbed, the initial correction may start automatically.
