windshield wiper is performing low

Compass
The vehicle may have a compass
display in the Driver Information
Center (DIC).
Setting the Compass Zone
Under certain circumstances, such
as during a long trip or moving to a
new area, the compass zone will
need to be reset. If the compass is
not set to the correct zone, it may
give false readings. The compass
zone should be set to the area in
which the vehicle is currently
traveling.
Use the DIC buttons to set the
compass zone:
1. While the vehicle is in P (Park),
press the MENU button to
display the DIC menu.
2. Press and hold SET/CLR while
the Set Area display is active.
3. Find the vehicle's current
location and zone number on the
map. Zones 1 through 15 are
available.
4. Use
w x to change to the
correct zone number.
5. Press SET/CLR to confirm the
setting.
Recalibrating the Compass
Whenever the DIC or the battery is
disconnected, the compass must be
recalibrated. To do this, the vehicle
must be driven in circles. Only
calibrate the compass in a
magnetically clean and safe
location, such as an open parking
lot, where driving the vehicle in
circles is not a danger. It is
suggested to calibrate away from
tall buildings, utility wires, manhole
covers, or other industrial structures,
if possible.
If code 125 is displayed on the DIC,
the compass needs to be
recalibrated.
