GMC 2003 Envoy XL - Compass Variance

Compass Variance
Compass variance is the difference between earth’s
magnetic north and true geographic north. The mirror is
set
to zone eight upon leaving the factory. It will be
necessary
to adjust the compass to compensate
for compass variance
if you live outside zone eight.
Under certain circumstances, such as during a
long distance cross-country trip, it will be necessary to
adjust for compass variance. If not adjusted to
account for compass variance, your compass could give
false readings.
To adjust for compass variance, do the following:
1. Find your current location and variance zone
number on the map.
2. Press and hold the on/off button for six seconds.
Release the button when
“ZONE” is displayed.
The number shown is the current zone number.
3. Scroll through the zone numbers that appear in the
compass/temperature window on the mirror by
pressing the on/off button. Once you find your zone
number, release the button. After about four
seconds, the mirror will return
to the compass
display, and the new zone number will be set.
