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). 2-44
