How to Check the Mileage on a Car Dashboard?
1 Answers
The mileage of a car is displayed on the dashboard as ODO, followed by the unit (km). The car odometer also includes two LCD digital display windows connected to the same signal source, which respectively accumulate the current trip mileage and the total mileage. The current trip mileage usually has four digits for short-term counting and can be reset; the total mileage has six digits and cannot be reset. Additional information is as follows: 1. Classification of car mileage: Generally, there are two types of car mileage—one is the total mileage the vehicle has traveled, and the other is the measurable total mileage. 2. Measurable mileage: The owner can manually reset it. There is usually a small button (cylindrical) next to the number, and pressing it for a long time can reset it. 3. Total mileage traveled by the vehicle: Normally, it cannot be reset, but some used car dealers can adjust the value through instruments. The number can only increase unidirectionally (the number gets larger and larger), and the displayed number indicates the actual kilometers traveled. 4. Check the manual: Due to differences in car models and brands, the display on the dashboard may vary.
