116 INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS

Mileometer

The odometer shows how far the
vehicle has been driven, in either
kilometres or miles.

Trip Odometer

The trip odometer shows how far the
vehicle has been driven since the trip
odometer was last reset.
The trip odometer is accessed and
reset through the Driver Information
Centre (DIC). See Driver Information
Centre (DIC) 0 129.

Rev Counter

The tachometer displays the engine
speed in revolutions per minute (rpm).
On the base cluster, if the vehicle has
the Stop/Start system, when the
ignition is in ON/RUN, the tachometer
indicates the vehicle status. When
pointing to AUTO STOP, the engine is
off but the vehicle is on and can
move. The engine could auto start at
any time. When the indicator points
to OFF, the vehicle is off.
When the engine is on, the
tachometer will indicate the engine's
revolutions per minute (rpm). The
tachometer may vary by several
hundred rpm's, during Auto Stop
mode, when the engine is shutting off
and restarting.
A slight bump may be felt when the
transmission is determining the most
fuel efficient operating range.
Caution
If the engine is operated with the
rpm in the warning area at the high
end of the tachometer, the vehicle
could be damaged, and the damage
would not be covered by the vehicle
warranty. Do not operate the engine
with the rpm in the warning area.
