Speedometer and Odometer

Your speedometer lets you see your speed in both miles
per hour (mph) and kilometers per hour (km/h). Your
odometer shows how far your vehicle has been driven in
either miles (used in the United States) or in kilometers
(used in Canada).

Your vehicle has a tamper

-

resistant odometer. If you see

ERROR, you’ll know someone has probably tampered
with it and the numbers may not be accurate.

You may wonder what happens if your vehicle needs a
new odometer installed. If the new one can be set to the
mileage total of the old odometer, then that will be done.
But if it can’t, then it will be set at zero and a label must
be put on the driver’s door to show the old mileage
reading when the new odometer was installed.

Trip Odometer

Your trip odometer tells how far you have driven since
you last reset it. To set it to zero, press the button on the
right side of the instrument cluster.

Your trip/select reset switch will go back and forth
between the odometer and the trip odometer if the button
is pressed and released within 1.5 seconds. If the button is
pressed and held for longer than 1.5 seconds while in the
trip odometer mode, it will be reset to zero. If the button is

pressed and held for longer than 1.5 seconds while in the
odometer mode, it will have no effect.

Tachometer

The tachometer displays the
engine speed in thousands
of revolutions per minute
(rpm). (Optional cluster
tachometer shown.)

NOTICE:

Do not operate the engine with the tachometer in
the red area, or engine damage may occur.
