Inst rument s and Cont rols37
The odometer shows the total
distance your vehicle has been
driven in miles and kilometers. 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 and kilometers
indicated.This trip meter shows the number of
miles or kilometers driven since you
last reset it.
There are two trip meters: Trip A
and Trip B. Switch between these
displays by pressing the TRIP button.
Each trip meter works independently,
so you can keep track of two
dif f erent distances.To reset a trip meter, display it, and
then press and hold the TRIP button
until you hear a beep and the
number resets to ‘‘0.0’’.
The select button switches the
speedometer reading between miles
perhourandkilometerperhour.It
also changes the odometer and trip
meters to read in miles or kilometers
correspondingly. To change the
readings, push the SELECT button,
and hold it until you hear a beep.
