Compass Zone Adjustment
Note. This procedure is only applicable to vehicles without navigation. For vehicles with navigation, there is no compass zone adjustment.
Scheme 258
- Refer to the compass calibration zone map below to select the correct compass zone setting for the geographic location of the vehicle.
- With the ignition in the ON position, press and hold the Front Controls Interface Module (FCIM) (Fusion/Milan) or Front Display Interface Module (FDIM) (MKZ) 7 and 9 buttons (for approximately 5 seconds) until the compass display shows the current zone setting (ZONE XX). Release the 7 and 9 buttons.
- Before the zone setting mode turns off (within 5 seconds), momentarily press and release the 7 and 9 buttons to increase the zone increment by one. Set the zone display number to match the vehicle geographical location on the compass calibration zone map. NOTE: After the 7 and 9 buttons have been released for approximately 5 seconds, the compass display exits the zone setting mode.
- Release the 7 and 9 buttons for 5 seconds to exit the zone setting mode.
Compass Calibration
Note. This procedure is only applicable to vehicles without navigation. For vehicles with navigation, there is no compass zone adjustment.
- Start the vehicle. NOTE: For optimum calibration, drive to an open, level location away from large metallic objects or structures. Switch off all non-essential electrical accessories (heated rear window, heater fan, A/C, map lamps, and wipers) and make sure all doors are closed.
- Press and hold (for approximately 10 seconds) the 7 and 9 buttons until the CAL indicator appears in the display, then release the buttons. NOTE: The vehicle remains in the CAL mode until the compass has been successfully calibrated. NOTE: While holding the Front Controls Interface Module (FCIM) (Fusion/Milan) or Front Display Interface Module (FDIM) (MKZ) 7 and 9 buttons down, the compass display first enters the ZONE setting mode (after 5 seconds) and then after another 5 seconds (10 seconds total), the compass display enters the CAL mode.
- Drive the vehicle slowly at less than 5 km/h (3 mph) in a continuous circle until the CAL indicator disappears from the display and the compass heading is shown. NOTE: If the CAL indicator does not turn off after the vehicle is driven in a circle at least 5 times, repeat the procedure.
- If the CAL indicator does not turn off after driving in a circle at least 5 times (and the procedure has been repeated at least once), install a new compass module (integral to the auto-dimming interior mirror).
