Odometer Update

Odometer Update

It is strongly recommended that you update your odometer value in these instances:

  • upon creating the account;
  • at the beginning and end of each fiscal yea;
  • upon adding a new vehicle.

Why? :

1. To comply with government requirements.

2. In the event of a problem with your device, the actual number of kilometres travelled, as displayed on your vehicle’s odometer, can be adjusted during the update.

3. To have the information available in the event of a tax audit.

How to update:

After logging into your ODOTRACK account, in the tabs to the left of your screen, select Configuration, then Vehicles.

Select the desired vehicle from the table to the right of the screen, click on the Odometer tab, then click on Update Odometer.
