possible, it is set at zero and a label
is put on the driver door to show the

Trip Odometer

The trip odometer can show how far
the vehicle has been driven since
the trip odometer was last reset.
The trip odometer is accessed and
reset through the Driver Information
Center (DIC). See Driver
Information Center (DIC) on
page 5-25.

The tachometer displays the engine
speed in revolutions per
minute (rpm).
Caution

tachometer in the shaded warning
area, the vehicle could be
damaged, and the damages
Caution (Continued)
would not be covered by the
vehicle warranty. Do not operate
the engine with the tachometer in
the shaded warning area.

Fuel Gauge

When the ignition is on, the fuel
gauge indicates about how much
fuel is left in the tank.
(Continued)
There is an arrow near the fuel
gauge pointing to the side of the
vehicle the fuel door is on.
When the indicator nears empty, the
low fuel light comes on. There still is
a little fuel left, but the vehicle
should be refueled soon.
Here are four things that some
owners ask about. None of these
show a problem with the fuel gauge:
At the service station, the fuel
pump shuts off before the gauge
reads full.
It takes a little more or less fuel
to fill up than the gauge
indicated. For example, the
gauge may have indicated the
tank was half full, but it actually
took a little more or less than
half the tank's capacity to fill
the tank.
The gauge moves a little while
turning a corner or speeding up.
