Speedometer and Odometer
Your speedometer lets you see your speed in both
miles per hour (mph) and kilometers per hour (km/h).
Your odometer is located in your message center,
and shows how far your vehicle has been driven, in
either miles (used in the United States) or kilometers
(used in Canada).
When information messages need to be shown in the
message center, they will be shown in place of the
odometer. To display the odometer after a message(s)
is shown, clear each message by pressing the trip/reset
button located to the right of the speedometer. See
Message Center on page 3-43 for more information.
Your vehicle has a tamper-resistant odometer. 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 that will be done.
If it can’t, it will be 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. If the mileage is
unknown, the label should then indicate “previous
mileage unknown”.
Trip Odometer
Your trip odometer shows how far your vehicle has been
driven since the trip odometer was last reset. To reset the
trip odometer to zero, press and hold the trip/reset button
for about two seconds.
