Featurns & Cuntmls
lnsfrument Cluster
Your instrument cluster is designed to let you know at a glance how your.
vehicle is running. You'll know
how fast you're going, about how much fuel
you have,
and many other things you'll need to know to drive safely and
economically.
Tachometer Cluster
If you have the tachometer cluster, it looks slightly different but will tell you
everything the standard cluster does, in addition to displaying the vehicles
engine revolutions per minute (rpm).
Speedometer and Odometer
I
..
K2322
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 U.S.) or kilometers (used in
Canada).
Tamper Resistant Odometer
Your odometer is tamper-resistant, The odometer will show silver line\
s
between the numbers
if someone tries to turn it back.
You may wonder what happens if your vehicle needs a new odome\
ter installed.
If the new one can be set to the mileage total of the old odometer,
tien
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.

readout.
If the reset button is not fully pressed, the trip odometer may not go
all the way back to zero. If it doesn’t, you may have to press the reset
button again to reset the readout to zero.
Tachometer

If you have a tachometer, it displays the engine speed in revolutions per
minute (rpm).

Heater Output
Optional Engine Block Heater
If your engine is equipped with an optional engine block heater, you can use
it during initial start-up in cold weather (20"F,
-8OC, or lower) to help heat the
passenger compartment faster. Because an engine block heater war\
ms the
engine coolant, your vehicle's heating system can provide some \
heat as soon
as you start the engine.
The use of an engine block heater also reduces the time it takes for the
engine to reach normal operating temperature, and shortens the time it takes
the heater to reach full output. For more information, See "Engine Block
Heater" in the Index.
