Speedometer and Odometer
Your speedometer lets you see your speed in both miles
per hour (mph) and kilometers per hour ( k d h ) . Your
odometer shows how far your vehicle has been driven,
in either miles (used in the United States) or kilometers
(used in Canada).
Your Chevrolet's odometer is tamper-resistent, If you
can see silver lines between the numbers, probably
someone has tried to turn it back. The numbers may
not be true.
You may wonder what happens if your Chevrolet needs a
new odometer installed. If possible, the new one has to be
set to the same reading the old one had. If it can't be, then
it's set at zero, but a label on the driver's door must show
the old reading and when the new one was installed.
Trip Odometer
The trip odometer can tell you how far your car has been
driven since you last set the trip odometer to zero.
To set the trip odometer to zero, press the knob.
Tachometer
The tachometer displays the engine speed-;'in thousands
of revolutions per minute (rpm).
