Speedometer and Odometer

Your speedometer lets you see your speed in both
miles per hour (mph) and kilometers per hour (km/h).
Your odometer shows how far your vehicle has
been driven, in either miles (used in the United States)
or kilometers (used in Canada).
Engine Hour Meter Display
The Driver Information Center (DIC) can also display
the number of hours the engine has run. To display the
engine hours, turn the ignition off, press and hold the
reset button for at least four seconds. The hour meter
will be displayed for up to 30 seconds, or until the
ignition is turned on. See DIC Operation and Displays
(With DIC Buttons) on page 3-57 or DIC Operation
and Displays (Without DIC Buttons) on page 3-63 for
more information.

Trip Odometer

The trip odometer can tell you how far your vehicle
has been driven since you last set the trip odometer
to zero.
Press the reset button, located on the instrument panel
cluster next to the voltmeter, to toggle between the
trip odometer and the regular odometer. Holding the
reset button for approximately one second while
the trip odometer is displayed will reset it.
To display the odometer reading with the ignition off,
press the reset button.

revolutions per minute (rpm). See "Grade Braking
