Calibrating the Automatic Day-Night Mirror Compass using the Autocal
Feature
The automatic day-night mirror has an autocal compass which automatically
calibrates, during normal driving conditions, in order to prevent vehicles
unique magnetic fields from causing the mirror to display the wrong compass
direction. During calibration, the letter "C" displays. Calibration
is completed when the "C" changes to the correct directional
heading. Once calibrated, the mirror does not need to be recalibrated. When
you turn the ignition switch to the OFF position, calibration does not change.
Calibrating the Automatic Day-Night Mirror Compass Manually
- If the "C" displays, drive the vehicle slowly (5 mph
or less) in a 360 degree circle until the display reads the compass
direction.
- If the "C" does not display, turn the ignition switch
to the RUN position. Turn the automatic day-night mirror on. Press the calibration
switch by inserting the end of a paper clip into the hole on the bottom
of the mirror. Hold the paper clip in the hole for 10 seconds until
the letter "C" appears in the display. Drive the vehicle slowly
(5 mph or less) in a 360 degree circle until the display reads
a compass direction.
