Cadillac 2009 CTS - Manual (Page 179)

Speedometer and Odometer
The speedometer shows the vehicle speed in either
miles per hour (mph) or kilometers per hour (km/h).
The odometer shows how far the vehicle has been
driven, in either miles (used in the United States)
or kilometers (used in Canada).
If the vehicle has to have a new odometer installed,
the new one may read the correct mileage. This is
because the vehicle computer has stored the mileage
in memory.
While the Driver Shift Control (DSC) feature is active,
the odometer changes to show the gear range.
See Automatic Transmission Operation on page 2-37
for more information.
Trip Odometers
The trip odometer can record the number of miles or
kilometers traveled for up to two trips.
The trip odometer is part of the Driver Information
Center (DIC), for more information see DIC Operation
and Displays on page 3-50.
For vehicles that have the navigation system, see your
Navigation System manual for more information.
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.
The CTS-V tachometer has tracer lights that follow the
movement of the tachometer indicator.
