odometer shows the total distance trav-
eled. The tripmeter shows the distance
traveled since it was last set to zero.
Pushing the “TRIP” button switches the
display between the odometer mode
“ODO” and the tripmeter mode “TRIP”.To reset the tripmeter, select it by
pushing the “TRIP” button, and then
push the “TRIP” button again and hold
it down for at least one second. The
tripmeter can be used to estimate the
distance that can be traveled with a full
tank of fuel. This information will enable

tachometer; however, it has a built-in
speed limiter, which prevents the en-
gine speed from exceeding approxi-
mately 6,800 r/min and the vehicle
speed from exceeding approximately
