Honda CR-V: Compass Calibration

If you see ‘‘- -’’ in the direction
display when you turn the ignition
switch to the ON (II) position, the
compass is self-calibrating.
The compass may need to be
manually calibrated after exposure to
a strong magnetic field. If the
compass display changes to ‘‘- -’’
and the calibrate indicator blinks, or
the display does not show any
direction and the compass is not selfcalibrating,
do the following.
1. Drive the vehicle slowly in three
complete circles.
NOTE: Do this procedure in an open area, away from buildings, power
lines, and other vehicles.
2. When the display goes from
‘‘- -’’ or blank to an actual
heading, the unit is calibrated and
the display returns to normal.
