1997 CHEVROLET MONTE CARLO mileage

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Speedometer/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 Chevrolet 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 correct.
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 that is what
will be done. 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 reset button.

Doing Your Own Service Work
If you want to do some of your own service work, you’ll
want
to get the proper Chevrolet Service Manual. It tells
you much more about how
to service your Chevrolet
than this manual can.
To order the proper service
manual, see “Service and Owner Publications” in
the Index. Your
vehicle has an air bag system. Before attempting to
do your own service work, see “Servicing Your Air
Bag-Equipped Chevrolet” in the Index.
You should keep a record with all parts receipts and list
the mileage and the date of any service work you
perform.
See “Maintenance Record” in the Index.
You can be injured and your vehicle could be
damaged if you try to do service work on a
vehicle without knowing enough about it.
Be sure you have sufficient knowledge,
experience, the proper replacement parts
and tools before you attempt any vehicle
maintenance
task.
Be sure to use the proper nuts, bolts and
other fasteners. 44English” and “metric”
fasteners can be easily confused.
If you use
the wrong fasteners, parts can later break
or fall off.
You could be hurt.
