12. Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)
Display/Odometer Display
The odometer display shows the total distance the vehicle
has been driven. U.S. Federal regulations require that upon
transfer of vehicle ownership, the seller certify to the pur-
chaser the correct mileage that the vehicle has been driven.
If your odometer needs to be repaired or serviced, the repair
technician should leave the odometer reading the same as it
was before the repair or service. If s/he cannot do so, then
the odometer must be set at zero, and a sticker must be
placed in the door jamb stating what the mileage was before
the repair or service. It is a good idea for you to make a
record of the odometer reading before the repair/service, so
that you can be sure that it is properly reset, or that the door
jamb sticker is accurate if the odometer must be reset at zero.
When the appropriate conditions exist, this display shows
the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) messages.
Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Information Center”.
13. Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) White
Telltale Area
This area will display the EVIC reconfigurable white
telltales. For further information, refer to “Electronic
vehicle Information Center (EVIC)”.
14. 4 LOW — If Equipped
This light alerts the driver that the vehicle is in
the four-wheel drive LOW mode. The front and
rear driveshafts are mechanically locked to-
gether forcing the front and rear wheels to rotate
at the same speed. Low range provides a greater gear
reduction ratio to provide increased torque at the wheels.
For further information on four-wheel drive operation
and proper use, refer to “Four-Wheel Drive Operation —
If Equipped” in “Starting And Operating”.
