the same as it was before the repair or service. If s/he
cannot do so, then the odometer must be set at zero,
and a sticker must be placed in the door jamb stating
what the mileage was before the repair or service. It is
a good idea for you to make a record of the odometer
reading before the repair/service, so that you can be
sure that it is properly reset, or that the door jamb
sticker is accurate if the odometer must be reset at
zero.

Information Center (EVIC) in the instrument cluster,
all warnings including "door" and "gate" and

When the appropriate conditions exist, this display
shows the EVIC messages.
Refer to the "Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC)" for further information.
