Trip Odometer
3(Trip Odometer): Press this button to access the
Odometer, Trip Distances, AVERAGE SPEED, and
TIME ELAPSED modes.

the first menu displayed on the DIC screen is the
odometer reading, or cumulative mileage of the vehicle.
The odometer cannot be reset.

next menu.
Trip Distances: This menu shows the distances that
the vehicle has driven between specific points. The
trip odometer will record the number of miles up to
9,999.9 miles or 9 999.9 km travelled for up to two trips.
When 9,999.9 miles or 9 999.9 km is reached for either
trip, the odometer for that trip will go back to zero.
To reset the trip distances:
1. Press the trip odometer button again to access
TRIP A. Press the trip odometer button again to
access TRIP B. To reset the trip odometer(s) back to
zero miles or to zero kilometers, access the trip that
needs to be reset and press the set/reset button.
2. Press the trip odometer button again to advance
to the next screen.
The trip odometer has a feature called the retro-active
reset. This can be used to set the trip odometer to
the number of miles (kilometers) driven since the
ignition was last turned on. This can be used if the
trip odometer is not reset at the beginning of the trip.
To use the retro-active reset feature, press and hold
the set/reset button for at least three seconds. The trip
odometer will display the number of miles or kilometers
driven since the ignition was last turned on and the
vehicle was moving. Once the vehicle begins moving,
the trip odometer will accumulate mileage. For example,
if the vehicle was driven 5.0 miles (8.0 km) before it
is started again, and then the retro-active reset feature
is activated, the display will show 5.0 miles (8.0 km).
As the vehicle begins moving, the display will then
increase to 5.1 miles (8.2 km), 5.2 miles (8.4 km), etc.
If the retro-active reset feature is activated after the
vehicle is started, but before it begins moving, the
display will show the number of miles or kilometers
that were driven during the last ignition cycle.
