5-8 Instruments and Controls Speedometer The speedometer shows the vehicle's speed in either kilometers per hour (km/h) or miles per hour (mph). Trip Odometer The vehicle has a trip odometer that indicates how far the vehicle has been driven since the trip odometer was last set to zero. See "Trip Odometer" under Driver Information Center (DIC) on page 5‑19 for more information. Fuel Gauge Odometer The odometer shows how far the vehicle has been driven, in either miles (used in the United States) or kilometers (used in Canada). The odometer mileage can be checked without the vehicle running by pressing the trip information stem. See "Odometer" under Driver Information Center (DIC) on page 5‑19 for more information. If the cluster is replaced the new one will automatically detect and update the vehicle's accumulated mileage. 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. When the ignition is on, the fuel gauge shows how much fuel the vehicle has remaining in the fuel tank. An arrow on the fuel gauge indicates the side of the vehicle the fuel door is on.
