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 odometer is tamper resistant. The digital odometer
will read
999,999
if
someone tries
to
turn it back.
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
The trip odometer can tell you how far your vehicle has
been driven since you last set the trip odometer
to
zero.
The trip odometer will appear in place
of
your regular
odometer when you press the TRIP button.
To
reset the trip odometer, press and hold the TRIP
button. To change back to the regular odometer, press
the
TRIP
button again.
Warning
Lights,
Gages
and
Indicators
This part describes the warning lights and gages that
may be on your vehicle. The pictures will help you
locate them.
Warning lights and gages can signal that something is
wrong before it becomes serious enough to cause an
expensive repair or replacement. Paying attention to
your warning lights and gages could
also
save you or
others from injury.
Warning lights come on when there may be or is a
problem with one of your vehicle’s functions.
As
you
will see in the details on the next few pages, some
warning lights come on briefly when you start the
engine just
to
let you know they’re working.
If
you
afe
familiar with this section, you should not be alarmed
when this happens.
