Compass: Description and Operation

COMPASS

System Description
This unit displays earth magnetism and heading direction of vehicle.




DIRECTION DISPLAY
Push "COMP" switch (1) when ignition switch is in "ON" or "START" position. The direction will be displayed.
Pushing "COMP" switch (1) a second time will turn off the display (2).

NOTE:
- Do not install the ski rack, antenna, etc. which are attached to the vehicle by means of a magnet. They affect the operation of the compass.
- The compass may not indicate the correct compass point in tunnels or while driving up or down a steep hill. (The compass returns to the correct compass point when the vehicle moves to an area where the geomagnetism is stabilized.)
- When cleaning the mirror, use a paper towel or similar material dampened with glass cleaner. Do not spray glass cleaner directly on the mirror as that may cause the liquid cleaner to enter the mirror housing.
