Speedometer and Odometer Your speedometer lets you see your speed in either miles per hour (mph) or kilometers per hour (km/h). For more information see "Personal Options" under DIC Vehicle Personalization on page 232. To read the odometer with the ignition off, turn on the parking lamps. You may wonder what happens if your vehicle needs a new odometer installed. The mileage total of the new odometer will be set to the original miles (kilometers) of the old odometer. See your dealer if the odometer must be replaced in your vehicle. Notice: Fuel will shut off at about 6600 rpm for the base model and 7100 rpm for the Z06 model. If you continue to drive your vehicle at the fuel shut off rpm, you could damage your engine. Be sure to operate your vehicle below the fuel shut off rpm or reduce your rpm quickly when the fuel shuts off. Safety Belt Reminder Light When the ignition is turned on, a chime will come on for several seconds to remind people to fasten their safety belts, unless the driver's safety belt is already buckled. The safety belt light will also come on and stay on for several seconds, then it will flash for several more. Tachometer The tachometer displays the engine speed in thousands of revolutions per minute (rpm). This chime and light will be repeated if the driver remains unbuckled and the vehicle is in motion. If the driver's belt is already buckled, neither the chime nor the light will come on. 188
