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 3-64 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 3-64 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 button is pressed to START, 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.
