66 Instruments and controls IB340 Instruments Tachometer The tachometer indicates the engine speed in thousands of revolutions per minute. The needle may be allowed to enter the broken red zone on the dial only for an instant. A safety cut-out function (in the fuel system) prevents the engine speed exceeding approximately 6,200 rpm (2.0 Turbo) and 6,400 rpm (2.3 Turbo). Odometer and trip meter The odometer records the distance travelled in miles on U.S. vehicles and on Canadian vehicles the distance indicated is in kilometres, and the trip meter in miles and tenths (kilometres and tenths of kilometres on Canadian vehicles). IB341 Speedometer (U.S. speedometer shown) The speedometer receives signals from a wheel sensor in the ABS system. If the NIGHT PANEL mode has been selected, the scale will be illuminated up to 87 mph (140 km/h). The remainder of the scale will be illuminated if the speed of the car exceeds 84 mph (135 km/h). Reset button The button is located close to the right of the odometer and trip meter in the main instrument panel. The reset button has two functions, determined by whether the ignition is ON or OFF. • When the ignition is ON, the button will reset the trip meter. • When the ignition is OFF, the button will bring up the display for 20 seconds to allow the odometer and trip-meter readings to be viewed.
