odometer OLDSMOBILE AURORA 1995 Owners Manual

Speedometer
Your speedometer lets you see your speed in both miles
per hour (mph) and kilometers per hour (km/h).
Odometer and Trip Odometer
Your odometer shows how far your vehicle has been
driven
in either miles (used in the United States) or
kilometers (used
in Canada).

EMiUM UNLEAOED FUEL ON C
Your trip odometer tells you how far you have driven
since
you last reset it. Press the trip button located next
to the trip odometer, below the fuel gage.
Your Aurora 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 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.
Tachometer
2
The tachometer displays the engine speed in revolutions
per minute
(RPM).
If your engine speed equals or exceeds the safe limit for
operation, the message HOT
... REDUCE ENGINE RPM
is displayed on the information center.

Distance to Destination
This feature acts as a reverse trip odometer by counting
backward from
an estimated distance which you enter
before starting your trip. It also uses that information to
determine the estimated time
of arrival.
To set, press DEST, then RESET and enter a maximum
of four digits for the length of your trip. (Always use
whole miles or kilometers.) Then press ENTER. The
system will only accept the last four digits you enter as
your distance
to destination.
The system will display the total distance to destination,
such as:
365
MI TO DEST or
587 KM TO DEST
When the system counts down to zero distance
remaining, even
if you’re in another display, a chime
will sound and the display will show:
TRIP COMPLETE
The TRIP COMPLETE message will go off when
you
press any button, or when you turn your ignition off,
then on.
The display returns to the mode displayed prior
to the interruption.
Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA)
ETA is based on the average speed, the date and time of
the day, and the estimated distance to your destination.
After you have entered your distance to destination,
press ETA to display estimated time
of arrival, such as:
ETA TUE 1256
PM
Press ETA again to display the time to destination. The
display will show the current time as the hours and
minutes
to destination, such as:
1250 TIME TO DEST
If the time to destination calculation is seven days or
greater, the display will read:
TRIP OVER
7 DAYS
When the trip is complete a chime will sound and the
display will show:
TRIP COMPLETE
The trip complete message will go off when you press
any button, or when you turn your ignition off, then on.
The display returns to the mode displayed prior to the
interruption.

Wheel Replacement
Replace any wheel that is bent, cracked, or badly rusted
or corroded. If wheel nuts keep coming loose, the wheel,
wheel bolts, and wheel nuts should be replaced.
If the
wheel leaks air, replace it (except some aluminum
wheels, which can sometimes
be repaired). See your
Aurora retailer if any
of these conditions exist.
Your retailer will know the kind
of wheel you need.
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 Aurora
model.
I NOTICE:
The wrong wheel can also cause problems with
bearing life, brake cooling,
speedometer/odometer calibration, headlamp aim, bumper height, vehicle ground clearance,
and tire
or tire chain clearance to the body and
chassis.
