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 miles.
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 Odometers
The trip odometers can tell you how far your vehicle has
been driven since you last set the trip odometer to zero.
The button located on the right side of the instrument
panel cluster allows you to switch between the odometer
and the two trip odometers. Press the button once to
switch to TRIP A and again to switch to TRIP B.
To return the display to the odometer reading press
the trip odometer button again.
To set the trip odometers to zero, press and hold the
knob on the right side of the instrument panel.
Tachometer (Option)
The tachometer shows
engine speed in thousands of
revolutions per minute (rpm).
NOTICE:
Do not operate the engine with the tachometer in
the red area, or engine damage may occur.
Temperature Display (Option)
The outside air temperature is displayed on the left side of
the instrument panel, within the tachometer. The display
will show the outside air temperature in Fahrenheit with
a range from
-
22
_F to 122_F (
-
30
_C to 50_C).
