EV compensation is not available when the exposure mode is set to B (Green) or p (Bulb) mode.

The EV compensation cannot be canceled by turning the camera off or by setting any other exposure mode.

The EV compensation value is reset to 0 when the Green button is pressed while holding down the m button.

EV Compensation for a (Hyper-manual) and M (Flash X-sync speed)

For example, if the EV compensation value is set to +1.5 for a and M, an underexposure of 1.5EV is displayed on the EV bar. If you set the exposure value so that the V is displayed at the center of the EV bar, the image will be captured with the compensated value.
