The lef t or right turn signal indicator
blinks when you signal a lane change

blink. All turn signals on the outside

The odometer shows the total
distance your vehicle has been
driven in miles and kilometers. 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 and kilometers
indicated. This trip meter shows the number of
miles or kilometers driven since you
last reset it.To reset a trip meter, display it, and
then press and hold the TRIP button
until you hear a beep and the
number resets to ‘‘0.0’’.
The select button switches the
speedometer reading between miles
per hour and kilometers per hour. It
also changes the odometer and trip
meters to read in miles or kilometers
correspondingly. To change the
readings, push the SELECT button,
and hold it until you hear a beep.
There are two trip meters: Trip A
and Trip B. Switch between these
displays by pressing the TRIP button
repeatedly. Each trip meter works
independently, so you can keep track
of two dif f erent distances.
