things (like other vehicles) look
farther away than they really are. If

your right. Check your inside
mirror or glance over your
shoulder before changing lanes. Adjust

see the side
of your vehicle when you are

STANDARD CLUSTER
Instrument Panel Clusters
Your Chevrolet is equipped with one of
these instrument panel clusters, which
include indicator warning lights and
gages that are explained on the
following pages. Be sure to read about
those that apply to the instrument panel
cluster for your vehicle.
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
U.S.) or kilometers (used in
Canada).
Tamper Resistant Odometer
Your Chevrolet 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.

Warning Lights,
Gages and Indicators
This section describes the warning lights
and gages that may be on your vehicle.
The pictures will help
you locate them.
Warning lights and gages can signal that something is wrong before it becomes
serious enough
to cause an expensive
repair or replacement. Paying attention
to your warning lights and gages could also save you or others from injury.
Warning lights
go on when there may be
or is a problem
with one of your
vehicle’s functions.
As you will see in
the details on the next few pages, some
warning lights come on briefly when
you turn the ignition key just to let you
know they’re working. If you are
familiar with this section, you should
not be alarmed when this happens. Gages can indicate when there
may be
or is a problem with one
of your
vehicle’s functions. Often gages
and
warning lights work together to let you
know when there’s a problem with your
vehicle.
When one of the warning lights comes
on and stays on when you are driving,
or when one
of the gages shows there
may be a problem, check the section
that tells you what to do about it. Please
follow the manual’s advice. Waiting to
do repairs can be costly-and even
dangerous.
So please get to know your
warning lights and gages. They’re a big
help.
Fuel Gage
When the ignition is on, your fuel gage
tells
you about how much fuel you have
left. When the indicator nears
E (Empty),
you still have a little fuel left, but you
should get more soon.
Here are four things that some owners
ask about. None
of these show a
problem with your fuel gage:
At the gas station, the gas pump shuts
off before the gage reads
F (Full).
It takes a little more or less fuel to fdl
up than the gage indicated. For
example, the gage may have indicated
the
tank was half full, but it actually
took a little more or less than half the
tank‘s capacity to fill the tank.
