Speedometer and
Odometer

The speedometer shows the
vehicle’s speed in both miles
per hour (mph) and kilometers
per hour (km/h).

The odometer shows how far the
vehicle has been driven, in
either miles or kilometers.

If the vehicle needs a new odometer
installed, the new one is set to
the mileage total of the old
odometer. If it cannot, 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 that the
previous mileage is unknown.

Trip Odometer

The trip odometer is located on the
instrument panel and shows how
far the 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 on the speedometer for
about two seconds. Press the
trip/reset button to switch between
the trip odometer and odometer.

Tachometer

The tachometer displays the
engine speed in revolutions
per minute (rpm).

The auto stop indicator is located at
the bottom of the tachometer. For
more information see Auto Stop
Mode
on page 3-35.

Safety Belt Reminders

Driver Safety Belt Reminder
Light

When the engine is started, a chime
sounds for several seconds to
remind the driver to fasten their
safety belt, unless it is already
buckled.

The safety belt light comes on and
stays on for several seconds,
then flashes for several more.

This chime and light are repeated if
the driver safety belt remains
unbuckled and the vehicle is in
motion. If the driver safety belt is
already buckled, neither the
chime nor the light comes on.
