What does 'trip' on a car mean?

[LaAnna]

'Trip' on a car refers to the trip mileage, which can be used to record the kilometers traveled for each trip. The method to adjust the odometer is as follows: 1. Unplug the odometer sensor connector under the car's hood; 2. Insert the output plug of the mileage adjuster into the signal socket of the sensor; 3. Plug the mileage adjuster into the cigarette lighter; 4. Turn the car key to start the dashboard and adjust the buttons on the mileage adjuster; 5. Adjust the speed as needed. The odometer's function is to record the total kilometers since the car left the factory. Its working principle is based on the known diameter of the car's wheels. By calculating the circumference of the wheel, the number of rotations needed for one mile can be determined. The odometer automatically records the number of wheel rotations, and dividing this by the number of rotations per mile gives the distance traveled.
