The RX5000 must be calibrated for accurate heading infor-
mation. Calibration allows the unit to separate the earth’s
eld from the magnetic elds generated by your vehicle.
Before beginning calibration, the RX5000 must be installed
in your vehicle in the location you wish to use it.
When to Calibrate
• When the unit is used for the rst time in a vehicle.
• When the unit is mounted in a different location than
where previously calibrated.
• When the magnetic DI S TO RT . message (Distor-
tion) is continuously displayed.
Calibrating the RX5000
1. Press the CITY button for approximately 3 seconds, then
release immediately when you hear the unit beep. The
display will read CAL for 1 second than will ash
TURN TWICE consecutively.
2. Turn your vehicle in two circles (see Note page 6).
3. Press and release the CITY button. The display will read
COMPLETE for 1 second before returning to its
previous mode setting.
Calibration is now complete!
Note: In step 1, above, holding the CITY button for
longer than 3 seconds will display COMPLETE
instead of TURN TWICE. If so, repeat from
step 1, making sure you release the button when you hear
the unit beep (approximately 3 seconds later).
