try this, hope it helps............

OPERATION
The compass mini-trip computer only operates with the ignition switch in the On position. When the ignition switch is turned to the On position, all of the segments in the compass mini-trip computer VFD will be turned on for one second, then the display will return to the last function being displayed before the ignition was turned to the Off position. With the ignition switch in the On position, momentarily depressing and releasing the Step push button switch will cause the compass-mini-trip computer to change its mode of operation, and momentarily depressing and releasing the U. S./Metric push button will cause the unit to toggle between U. S. and Metric measurements. While in either compass mode, depressing the U. S./Metric push button for more than ten seconds will toggle the display between the compass/temperature and the compass/compass in degrees modes.

This compass mini-trip computer features several functions that can be reset. If both the Step and U. S./Metric push buttons are depressed at the same time with the ignition switch in the On position, the trip computer information that can be reset is reset. Depressing and releasing the Step and U. S./Metric push buttons at the same time for more than 100 milliseconds, but not more than one second while in any display mode (except the compass/temperature mode) will cause a local reset. A local reset affects only the function currently displayed. See the Reset Chart below for more information on this feature. Performing a local reset while in the compass/temperature mode enters the module into the compass variance setting mode

RESET CHART
DISPLAY AFTER RESET
Trip Odometer (ODO) Reset to Zero
Average Trip Fuel Economy (AVG ECO) Change to Current Fuel Economy
Instant Fuel Economy (ECO) Cannot be Reset
Distance to Empty (DTE) Cannot be Reset
Elapsed Time (ET) Reset to Zero
Blank Screen Cannot be Reset

Depressing and releasing the Step and U. S./Metric push buttons at the same time for more than two seconds while in any display mode (except the compass/temperature mode) will cause a global reset. A global reset changes all of the trip computer functions that can be reset.

For more information on the features and control functions of the compass mini-trip computer, see the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box.
