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 kilometers
(used
in
Canada).
Your Buick has a tamper resistant odometer.
If
you see
bright silver lines between the numbers, you’ll know
that someone has probably tried to turn
it
back. The
numbers may
not
be true.
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
it
must
be.
But if
it
can’t,
then it’s 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
A
trip odometer can tell you how far you have driven
since you last set
it
to zero.
To
reset
it,
push the button.
Tachometer
(If
Equipped)
The tachometer tells you
how fizst the engine
is
going. It displays
thousands
of
revolutions
per minute
(~pm).
