Speedometer

The speedometer shows the
vehicle's speed in either kilometers
per hour (km/h) or miles per
hour (mph).

Odometer

The odometer shows how far the
vehicle has been driven, in either
kilometers or miles.
This vehicle has a tamper-resistant
odometer. The digital odometer will
read 99999.9 if it is turned back.
If the vehicle needs a new odometer
installed, it must be set to the
mileage total of the old odometer.
If that is not possible, then it must
be set at zero and a label must be
put on the driver door to show the
old mileage reading when the new
odometer was installed.

Tachometer

The tachometer displays the engine
speed in revolutions per
minute (rpm).
Notice: If the engine is operated
with the tachometer in the shaded
warning area, the vehicle could
be damaged, and the damages
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 tells you about how much
fuel you have left in your tank.
Instruments and Controls
An arrow on the fuel gauge
indicates the side of the vehicle the
fuel door is on.
A FUEL LEVEL LOW message may
appear in the Driver Information
Center (DIC). See Fuel System
Messages on page 5 27 for more
information.
Here are four things that some
owners ask about. None of these
show a problem with your 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.
