mileage CHEVROLET MONTE CARLO 1996 5.G Owners Manual

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Speedometer/Odometer
Your speedometer lets you see your speed in both miles
per hour (mph) and kilonleters per hour (km/h). Your
odometer shows how far your vehicle has been driven
in
either miles (used in the United States) or in kilometers
(used
in Canada).
Your Chevrolet has a tamper-resistant odometer.
If
you see silver lines between the numbers, you’ll know
someone has probably tampered with
it and the numbers
may not be correct.
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 that is what will
be done. If it can’t, then it will be 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
Your trip odometer tells how far you have driven since
you last reset it. To set it to zero, press the reset button.
Tachometer
I
x1000
The tachometer displays
the engine speed
in
thousands of revolutions
per
minute (rpm).
I NOTICE:
Do not operate the engine with the tachometer in
the red area, or engine damage may occur.

Doing Your Own Service Work

want to get the proper Chevrolet Service Manual.
It tells
you much more about how to service your Chevrolet
than this manual can.
To order the proper service
manual, see “Service and Owner Publications”
in
the Index.
Your vehicle has an air bag system. Before attempting
to
do your own service work, see “Servicing Your Air
Bag-Equipped Chevrolet” in the Index.
