Speedometer And Odometer - Pontiac 2004 Grand Prix Owner's Manual

Speedometer and Odometer

The speedometer lets you see your speed in both
miles per hour (mph) and kilometers per hour (km/h).
The odometer, located on the Driver Information Center
(DIC) display, shows how far your vehicle has been
driven, in either miles or kilometers. See DIC Controls
and Displays on page 3-45 for more information.
If the vehicle has the Head-Up Display (HUD), the speed
will also be displayed on the HUD screen.
You may wonder what happens if a vehicle has to have
a new odometer installed. It the new one can be set
to the mileage total of the old odometer, than that will be
done. If it can't, than it will be set at zero and a label
must be put on the driver's door to show the old mileage
reading when the new odometer was installed.
Trip Odometer
The trip odometer, located in the Driver Information
Center (DIC), tells you how far you have driven since you
last reset it. You are able to see the miles (kilometers) for
two different trips. See DIC Controls and Displays on
page 3-45 for more information on setting the trip
odometer.
Tachometer
The tachometer displays the engine speed in revolutions
per minute (rpm).
Notice: Do not operate the engine with the
tachometer in the shaded warning area, or engine
damage may occur.
