Speedometer and Tachometer

The speedometer shows the speed of the vehicle. In the lower part of the speedometer face is the trip meter, which shows the distance traveled since it was last reset to zero. The trip meter can be reset to zero by turning the reset knob counterclockwise. In the upper part of the speedometer face is the odometer. The odometer shows the total distance that the vehicle has been ridden.

The tachometer shows the engine speed in revolutions per minute (rpm). On the right side of the tachometer face is a portion called the "red zone". Engine rpm in the red zone is above maximum recommended engine speed and is also above the range for good performance. Engine rpm should not be allowed to enter the red zone, as this will over-stress the engine and may cause serious engine damage.
