Speedometer And Odometer; Trip Odometer; Tachometer - GMC Canyon Owner's Manual

Speedometer and Odometer

Your speedometer lets you see your speed
in both miles per hour (mph) and kilometers
per hour (km/h).
Your odometer shows how far your vehicle
has been driven, in either miles (used in the
United States) or kilometers (used in Canada).
The odometer mileage can be checked without the
vehicle running. Simply press the trip information
stem. See "Odometer" under DIC Controls
and Displays on page 194 for more information.
You may wonder what happens if your vehicle
needs a new odometer installed. If the new one
can be set to the mileage total of the old odometer,
then it must be. But if it cannot, then it is 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

Your vehicle has a trip odometer that can tell you
how far your vehicle has been driven since
you last set the trip odometer to zero.
See "Trip Odometer" under DIC Controls and
Displays on page 194 for more information.

Tachometer

The tachometer displays the engine speed in
revolutions per minute (rpm).
Notice: If you operate the engine with the
tachometer in the shaded warning area, your
vehicle could be damaged, and the damages
would not be covered by your warranty. Do not
operate the engine with the tachometer in
the shaded warning area.
