Gauges U.S.: HX, LX, EX, Canada: LX, Si SPEEDOMETER TACHOMETER FUEL GAUGE TEMPERATURE GAUGE The trip meter shows the number of miles (U.S.) or kilometers (Canada) driven since you last reset it. There are two trip meters: Trip A and Trip B. Each trip meter works independently, so you can keep track of two different distances. To reset a trip meter, display it and then press and hold the Select/Reset knob until the number resets to ''0.0''. The U.S. instrument panel is shown. ODOMETER/TRIP METER SELECT/RESET KNOB Odometer/Trip Meter The odometer shows the total distance your vehicle has been driven. It measures miles in U.S. models and kilometers in Canadian models. It is illegal under U.S. federal law and Canadian provincial regulations to disconnect, reset, or alter the odometer with the intent to change the number of miles or kilometers indicated. The odometer and the trip meters use the same display. Switch between these displays by pressing the Select/Reset knob. Fuel Gauge This shows how much fuel you have. It may show slightly more or less than the actual amount. The needle returns to the bottom after you turn off the ignition. Avoid driving with an extremely low f uel level. Running out of f uel could cause the engine to misf ire, damaging the catalytic converter. 60 Instruments and Controls
