Your speedometer lets you see your speed in both miles per hour (mph)
and kilometers per hour (kmh). Your odometer
shows how far your
vehicle has been driven,
in either miles (used in the U.S.) or kilometers
(used in Canada).

this button.
The same button also makes other readings (like temperature, fuel and
odometer) go between English and metric.
Trip Odometer
You can tell how far
you’ve gone since you
last set it back to zero.
To reset, push and hold
the button until it

If your vehicle is domestic, the trip odometer will return to zero after

odometer will return to zero after 1999.9 km (1242 miles).

You may wonder what happens if a car has to have a new odometer
installed. The new one will read the correct mileage. This is because your
car’s computer has stored the mileage in memory.
WMING LIGHTS
This section describes the warning
pictures will help you locate them. lights
that are on your vehicle. The
Warning lights can signal that something is wrong before it becomes
serious enough to cause an expensive repair or replacement. Paying
attention
to your warning lights 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.
When one
of the warning lights comes on and stays on when you are
driving, 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. They’re a big help.
Your vehicle may also have a driver information system that works along
with the warning lights. See “Driver Information System” in the Index.
