make certain the ignition switch is in the
ON position.
3. Press and hold the left button for 3
seconds then release, and the compass
will enter the calibration mode. CAL and
direction will be displayed.
4. Drive slowly in a circle until CAL

mately two or three circles).
5. The compass is now calibrated.
Further calibration is not required. The
compass will automatically calibrate from
this point forward.

WARNING
Objects look smaller in a convex
mirror and farther away than when
viewed in a flat mirror. Do not use

distance of vehicles behind you
when changing lanes. Use the inside
mirror (or glance backwards) to
determine the actual size and dis-
tance of objects that you view in
convex mirror.
