CAL stands for Calibrate. The IPC (instrument panel cluster) needs to be recalibrated. This could becaused by a battery/power spike, which means the IPC will need to relearn default settings, or therecould be an underlying problem. Technician will need to hook it up to a computer to analyze problem,and relearn settings.

What dose Cal means its showing on my radio when i try to start my car
Unfortunately the CAL ERR is inside the radio and it requires a scan tool to reprogram. There are shops that are not a dealer that can do this programming. There is no code or sequence that I can give you to unlock or fix this. If there was, rest assured I would, but there is not. check with local stereo shops

My car dash-board shows "do off" light.
i think you might mean "od off". that means overdrive for the transmission. the button for that may be on the shifter handle or a button on the center dash board. unless youre towing or need a bit extra power you would generally leave it "on" with no lite on dash
