Instruments and Controls 5-9 Speedometer The speedometer shows the vehicle's speed in either kilometers per hour (km/h) or miles per hour (mph). The trip odometer measures the distance the vehicle has been driven since the function was last reset. To reset the trip odometer to zero, see Driver Information Center (DIC) on page 5-22. The fuel gauge indicates about how much fuel is left when the ignition is turned to ON/RUN. When the tank nears empty, the low fuel warning light will come on. There is still a little fuel left, but the vehicle's fuel tank should be filled soon. See Low Fuel Warning Light on page 5-19 for more information.
