1995 PONTIAC BONNEVILLE odometer

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).
The odometer
and trip odometer are displayed in the
Driver Information Center on vehicles
so equipped.
Tamper Resistant Odometer
Your Pontiac 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 set it to zero:
0 On vehicles with the Driver Information Center,
press the button labeled
TRIP.
On vehicles with the Systems Monitor, the button is
next to the trip odometer. Push and release in a
smooth, continuous motion until all zeroes appear.

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
Pontiac 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. Used
Replacement Wheels
Tire Chains
NOTICE:
Use tire chains only where legal and only when
you must. Use only
SAE Class “S” type chains
that are the proper size for your tires. Install
them on the front tires and tighten them as
tightly as possible with the ends securely
fastened. Drive slowly and follow the chain
manufacturer’s instructions.
If you can hear the
chains contacting your vehicle, stop and retighten
them.
If the contact continues, slow down until it
stops. Driving too fast or spinning the wheeIs
with chains on will damage your vehicle.
