Speedometer And Odometer; Tachometer; Safety Belt Reminder Light - Chevrolet 2007 Corvette Owner's Manual

Speedometer and Odometer

Your speedometer lets you see your speed in
either miles per hour (mph) or kilometers per
hour (km/h). For more information see "Personal
Options" under DIC Vehicle Personalization
on page 234.
To read the odometer with the ignition off, turn
on the parking lamps.
You may wonder what happens if your vehicle
needs a new odometer installed. The mileage
total of the new odometer will be set to the original
miles (kilometers) of the old odometer. See your
dealer if the odometer must be replaced in
your vehicle.

Tachometer

The tachometer displays the engine speed in
thousands of revolutions per minute (rpm).
Notice: Fuel will shut off at about 6600 rpm
for the base model and 7100 rpm for the
Z06 model. 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 is turned on, a chime will come
on for several seconds to remind people to
fasten their safety belts, unless the driver's safety
belt is already buckled.
This chime and light will be repeated if the driver
remains unbuckled and the vehicle is in motion.
If the driver's belt is already buckled, neither
the chime nor the light will come on.
The safety belt light will
also come on and stay
on for several seconds,
then it will flash for
several more.
