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 vehicle has a tamper resistant odometer. 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 you have driven

since you last reset it.

The reset button is located below the tachometer. To

reset the trip odometer to zero, press and hold briefly

the ribbed side of the button while the trip odometer is

displayed. Also, by pressing this button for less than

one second you can toggle between the odometer and

the trip odometer.

Tachometer

The tachometer shows your engine speed in revolutions

per minute (rpm).

NOTICE:

Do not run your engine at speeds in the red area,

or engine damage may occur.
