odometer Oldsmobile Achieva 1995 Owner's Manuals

Speedometer
Your speedometer lets you see your speed in both miles
per hour (mph) and kilometers per hour (km/h).
Tamper-Resistant Odometer
Your odometer shows how far your vehicle has been
driven, in either miles (used
in the United States) or
kilometers (used in Canada).
Your Oldsmobile has a tamper-resistant odometer.
If you
see silver lines between the numbers, you’ll know that
someone
has probably tried to turn it back, so the
numbers may not be true.
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 you have driven
since you last reset it.
To reset the trip odometer to zero,
press the knob to
the right of the gage.
