1995 CHEVROLET CAVALIER odometer

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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 United States) 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
so1neone
has probably tried to turn it back, so the
numbers
may not be true.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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 (Option)
The trip odometer can tell you how far your vehicle has
been driven since
you last set the trip odometer to zero.
To set
the trip odometer to zero, press the knob to the
right
of it.
Tachometer (Option)
The tachometer displays the engine speed in revolutions
per minute (rpm).
I NOTICE:
I
Do not operate the engine with the tachometer in
the red area, or engine damage may
occur.
Warning Lights, Gages and
Indicators
This part 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 come
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 start the
engine 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.

Replace any wheel that is bent, cracked, or badly rusted
i 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
I wheels, which can sometimes be repaired). See your
Chevrolet dealer if any
of these conditions exist.
Your dealer 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
i equipment parts. This way, you will be sure to have the
~ right wheel, wheel bolts, and wheel nuts for your
Chevrolet model. 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.
