Instrum-It P: le1 Cluster
United States Version Shown, Canadian Similar
Your instrument cluster
is designed to let you know at a glance how your vehicle is running. You’ll know how fast
you’re going, about how much
fuel is in your tank and many other things you need to drive safely and economically.

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 in kilometers
(used
in Canada).
Your Buick 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 accurate.
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 that will be done.
But if
it can’t, then it will be 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
Your trip odometer tells how far you have driven since
you last reset it.
To set it to zero, press the button on the
right side of the instrument cluster.
