Speedometer and Odometer

Your speedometer lets you see your speed in either
miles per hour (mph) or kilometers per hour (km/h).
There is only one scale for mph and km/h. Use the Driver
Information Center (DIC) controls to switch between mph
and km/h. See DIC Controls and Displays on page 3-61
for more information. The cluster will calculate the proper
speed and move the needle to the correct position. Either
the MPH or the km/h telltale will illuminate, depending on
which measurement you choose.
The odometer is part of the Driver Information
Center (DIC). See DIC Controls and Displays on
page 3-61 for more information.

Trip Odometer

The trip odometer is part of the Driver Information
Center (DIC). See DIC Controls and Displays on

Tachometer

The tachometer displays the engine speed in thousands
of revolutions per minute (rpm).
Fuel will shut off at about 6700 rpm.
If you continue to drive your vehicle at the fuel shut off
rpm, you could damage your engine. Be sure to
operate your vehicle below the fuel shut off rpm or
reduce your rpm quickly when the fuel shuts off.

Safety Belt Reminder Light

When the ignition is turned on, a chime will be provided
for several seconds to remind people to buckle their
safety belts. The driver safety belt light will also be
provided and stay on for several seconds, then it will flash
for several more. You should buckle your seat belt.
If the driver's belt is buckled, neither the chime nor the
light will be provided.
This chime and light will be
repeated if the driver
remains unbuckled and the
vehicle is in motion.
