    • Locate the trip button on the instrument cluster and press and hold it until the odometer reading shows "Odometer."

  3. Turn Ignition Off and Back On:

    • With the trip button still pressed, turn the ignition off and then back to "ON" again while holding the trip button.

  4. Release the Trip Button:
