Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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 (used in the United States) or
kilometers (used
in Canada).
Your odometer is tamper resistant. It will show silver lines
between the numbers
if someone tries to turn it back.
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
The trip odometer can tell you how far your vehicle has
been driven since you last set the trip odometer to zero.
To set the trip odometer to zero, press the button near
the readout
.
Tachometer (If Equipped)
The tachometer displays the engine speed in revolutions
per minute (rpm). Each
tachometer has
a different limit depending on the
powertrain
in your vehicle. The tachometer has three
areas: normal operating range, red warning range and
red danger range.
The normal operating range shows your engine speed
during normal driving conditions.
For example, when
the needle points to
2, it means the engine is running at
2,000 revolutions per minute (rpm). The tachometer
needle
will vary all the time that the engine is running.
The shaded red warning range teIls you
that your engine
speed is reaching
its upper limits. Don’t drive very long
with the tachometer in the red warning range. If you
have
a manual transmission, shift to a higher gear as
soon as possible. If you have an automatic transmission,
lift your foot off of the accelerator pedal.
The solid red danger range tells
you that your engine speed
is at its upper limits. Your should immediately shift to a
higher gear, or lift your foot off of the accelerator pedal.
I NOTICE:
Do not operate the engine with the tachometer in
the red range,
or engine damage will occur.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Each new wheel should have the same load-carrying
capacity, diameter, width,
offset and be mounted the
same way as the one it replaces.
If you need to replace any of your wheels, wheel bolts
or wheel
nuts, replace them only with new GM original
equipment parts. This way, you will be sure
to have the
right wheel, wheel bolts and wheel nuts for your vehicle.
I A CAUTION:
NOTICE:
The wrong wheel can also cause problems with
bearing life, brake cooling, speedometer or
odometer calibration, headlamp aim, bumper
height, vehicle ground clearance and tire
or tire
chain clearance to the body and chassis.
Using the wrong replacement wheels, wheel bolts
or wheel nuts
on your vehicle can be dangerous.
It could affect the braking and handling of your
vehicle, make your tires lose
air and make you
lose control. You could have a collision in which
you or others could be injured. Always use the
correct wheel, wheel bolts and wheel nuts
for replacement.
See “Changing a Flat Tire” in the Index for
more information.
Used ’Replacement Wheels
I A CAUTION:
Putting a used wheel on your vehicle is
dangerous. You can’t know how it’s been used or
how
far it’s been driven. It could fail suddenly
and cause an accident.
If you have to replace a
wheel, use a new
GM original equipment wheel.
