Speedometer And Odometer; Tachometer; Safety Belt Reminders; Safety Belt Reminder Light - Chevrolet 2010 Corvette Owner's Manual

Speedometer and Odometer

The speedometer shows the speed in either kilometers
per hour (km/h) or miles per hour (mph). For more
information see "Personal Options" under DIC Vehicle
Personalization on page 4-69.
To read the odometer with the ignition off, turn on the
parking lamps.
If the vehicle needs a new odometer installed, the
mileage total of the new odometer will be set to the
original kilometers (miles) of the old odometer. See your
dealer/retailer if the odometer must be replaced in the
vehicle.

Tachometer

The tachometer displays the engine speed in thousands
of revolutions per minute (rpm).
Notice: Fuel shuts off at about 6500 rpm for the
base model, 7000 rpm for the Z06 model, and
6600 rpm for the ZR1 model. If the vehicle continues
to be driven at the fuel shut off rpm, the engine could
be damaged. Be sure to operate the vehicle below the
fuel shut off rpm or reduce the vehicle's rpm quickly
when the fuel shuts off.

Safety Belt Reminders

Safety Belt Reminder Light

When the engine is started, a chime sounds for
several seconds to remind a driver to fasten the safety
belt, unless the driver safety belt is already buckled.
This chime and light are repeated if the driver remains
unbuckled and the vehicle is in motion. If the driver
safety belt is already buckled, neither the chime nor the
light comes on.
The safety belt light comes
on and stays on for
several seconds, then
flashes for several more.
