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 how far you have driven since
you last set it to zero.
To
reset
it,
push the button.
