Your speedometer lets you see your speed in both miles
per hour (mph) and kilometers per hour (kdh). Your
odometer shows how far your vehicle has been driven,
in either miles (used in the United States) or kilometers
(used in Canada).
Your Chevrolet’s odometer is tamper-resistent,
If you
can see silver lines between the numbers, probably
someone has tried to turn it back. The numbers may
not be true.
You may wonder what happens if your Chevrolet needs a
new odometer installed. If possible, the new one has
to be
set to the same reading the old one had. If it can’t be, then
it’s set at zero, but a label on the driver’s door must show
the old reading and when the new one was installed.
Trip Odometer
The trip odometer can tell you how far your car has been
driven since
you last set the trip odometer to zero.
To set the trip odometer to zero, press the knob.
Tachometer
The tachometer displays the engine speed-;’in thousands
of revolutions per minute (rpm).
I NOTICE:
Do not operate the engine with the tachometer in
the red area, or engine damage may occur.
w g Lights, Gages and Indicators
This part aescribes 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.
