Compass
Compass information is displayed on
the Driver Information Center (DIC)
by a heading arrow and the global ori‐
entation (North, East, South, West).
The compass receives its heading
and other information from Global Po‐
sitioning System (GPS) antenna,
Electronic Stability Control system
and vehicle speed information. Avoid
covering the GPS antenna for long
periods of time with objects that may
interfere with the antenna's ability to
receive a satellite signal.
Compass messages
The compass system is designed to
operate for a certain number of miles
or degrees of turn before needing
a signal from the GPS satellites.
When the compass display shows
CAL, the compass needs to be cali‐
brated. Drive the vehicle for a short
distance in an open area where it can
receive a GPS signal.
The compass system will automati‐
cally determine when GPS signal is
restored and provide a heading
again.

needs service. Seek the assistance of

nization.
