The odometer shows the total dis-
tance your vehicle has been driven.
It measures miles in U.S. models and
kilometers in Canadian models.
It is illegal under U.S. f ederal law and
Canadian provincial regulations to
disconnect, reset, or alter the
odometer with the intent to change
the number of miles or kilometers
indicated.This meter show the number of
miles (U.S.) or kilometers (Canada)
driven since you last reset it. There
are two trip meters: Trip A and Trip
B. When you first turn the ignition
switch to ON (II), Trip A is displayed.
Switch between Trip A and Trip B by
pressing the Select/Reset button
repeatedly. Each trip meter works
independently, so you can keep track
