    NOTE:
    • Do NOT perform calibration of the compass in a place where the earth's magnetic field is subject to interference by artificial magnetic fields (underground parking, under a steel tower, between buildings, roof parking, near a crossing, near a large vehicle, etc.)
    • During calibration, do NOT operate electric systems (moon roof, power windows, etc.) as they may interfere with the calibration.
