Speedometer And Odometer; Trip Odometer; Tachometer - GMC Sierra Denali 2009 Owner's Manual

Speedometer and Odometer

The speedometer shows the vehicle speed in both miles
per hour (mph) and kilometers per hour (km/h). The
odometer shows how far the 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 displays for up to 30 seconds, or until the ignition
is turned on. See DIC Operation and Displays (Using
Trip Odometer Reset Stem) on page 3-48 or DIC
Operation and Displays (Using DIC Buttons) on
page 3-50 for more information.

Trip Odometer

The trip odometer shows how far the vehicle has been
driven since the trip odometer was last set 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.
See DIC Operation and Displays (Using Trip Odometer
Reset Stem) on page 3-48 or DIC Operation and
Displays (Using DIC Buttons) on page 3-50 for more
information.

per minute (rpm).
Notice: If the engine is operated with the
tachometer in the solid red area, the vehicle could
