Instruments and Controls

Speedometer

The vehicle's speed can be selected
to display on the Driver Information
Center (DIC) and the speedometer
in either kilometers per hour (km/h)
or miles per hour (mph). Telltales on
the speedometer indicate whether
kilometers or miles were chosen.
The DIC will show the vehicles
speed after the limit on the
speedometer has been reached.

Odometer

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

This vehicle has a tamper-resistant
odometer. If the vehicle needs a
new odometer installed, the new

one is set to the mileage of the old
odometer. If this is not possible, it is
set at zero and a label is put on the
driver's door to show the old
mileage reading.

Tachometer

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

Notice: If the engine is operated
with the tachometer in the shaded
warning area, the vehicle could
be damaged, and the damages
would not be covered by the
vehicle warranty. Do not operate
the engine with the tachometer in
the shaded warning area.

Fuel Gage

United States

Canada

When the ignition is on, the fuel
gage shows about how much fuel
the vehicle has left in the fuel tank.

An arrow on the fuel gage indicates
the side of the vehicle the fuel door
is on.

The gage will first indicate empty
before the vehicle is out of fuel and
the low fuel light comes on, but the
vehicle's fuel tank should be
filled soon.
