1997 CHEVROLET TRACKER 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).
Your Geo’s odometer is tamper-resistant.
If you can see
silver lines between the numbers, someone probably has
tried
to turn it back. The numbers may not be true.
You may wonder what happens if your vehicle needs a
new odometer installed.
If possible, the new one is to be
set to the same reading as the old
one. If it can’t be, then
it’s set at zero. Then a label is attached on the driver’s
door to
show the old reading and when the new one was
installed.
Trip Odometer
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.
Tachometer
I
xlOOOrpm /
UNLEADED FUEL ONLY
The tachometer shows
engine speed in thousands
of revolutions per minute
(rpm).
You can use it while
driving to select correct
shift points. The tachometer
may not return to zero when
the engine is not running.
NOTICE:
Do not operate the engine with the tachometer in
the red area,
or engine damage may occur.
