The odometer shows the total dis-
tance your vehicle has been driven.
It measures miles in the U.S. models
and kilometers in the Canadian
models.
It is illegal under U.S. f ederal law and
Canadian provincial regulations to
disconnect, reset, or alter the
odometer with the intent to change
the number of miles or kilometersindicated.
The odometer and the trip meters
use the same display. Switch these
displays by pressing the Select/
Reset knob.
The trip meter shows the number of
miles (U.S.) or kilometers (Canada)
driven since you last reset it.
There are two trip meters: Trip Aand Trip B. Each trip meter works

of two dif f erent distances.

It may show slightly more or less
than the actual amount. The needle
returns to the bottom after you turn
of f the ignition.
To reset a trip meter, display it and
then press and hold the Select/Reset
