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 or kilometers. Press the
ENG/MET button which is located to the left of the
speedometer to change from mph to km/h.
Your vehicle has a tamper resistant odometer.
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 can’t, then it’s 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
A trip odometer can tell you how far you have driven
since you last set it to zero. To reset it, push the TRIP
RESET button. If your vehicle is equipped with a
DIC, seeDriver Information Center (DIC) on page 3-45
for information on resetting the trip odometer.
Tachometer
If your vehicle has this
feature, the tachometer
tells you how fast the
engine is running.
It displays engine speed in
thousands of 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.

DIC Controls and Displays
When you turn the ignition on, the DIC will display your
DRIVER NUMBER. You can have your dealer
program your name to appear on this display line. See
your dealer for more information.
The system will then perform a status check and display
any messages if a problem is detected. If there are
no problems detected, the display will return to the mode
selected by that driver the last time the ignition was
turned off.
If a problem is detected, a diagnostic message will
appear in the display. The following pages will show the
messages you may see on the DIC display.
The message center is continuously updated with the
vehicle’s performance status.The following buttons are
on the DIC control panel
which is located to
the left of the steering
column:
ODO/TRIP (Odometer/Trip):Press this button for the
display to show the total mileage, and Trip 1 or
Trip 2 miles. Trip 1 and Trip 2 will display the miles
traveled since the last reset. To reset the trip odometer,
press the ODO/TRIP button until the preferred trip
number (1 or 2) is shown in the DIC display, then press
the RESET button. The trip odometer will now
accumulate miles until the next reset.

Doing Your Own Service Work
If you want to do some of your own service work, you
will want to use the proper service manual. It tells
you much more about how to service your vehicle than
this manual can. To order the proper service manual,
seeService Publications Ordering Information on
page 7-11.
Your vehicle has an air bag system. Before attempting
to do your own service work, seeServicing Your Air
Bag-Equipped Vehicle on page 1-56.
You should keep a record with all parts receipts and list
the mileage and the date of any service work you
perform. SeePart E: Maintenance Record on page 6-24.
{CAUTION:
You can be injured and your vehicle could be
damaged if you try to do service work on a
vehicle without knowing enough about it.
Be sure you have sufficient knowledge,
experience, the proper replacement parts
and tools before you attempt any vehicle
maintenance task.
