Maintenance Schedule; Change Engine Oil Light - Chevrolet 2010 Aveo Series Owner's Manual

The oil light could also come on in three other
situations:
When the ignition is on but the engine is not
running, the light will come on as a test to show it
is working. The light will go out when the ignition is
turned on. If it does not come on with the ignition
on, there may be a problem with the fuse or bulb.
Have it fixed right away.
If the vehicle comes to a hard stop, the light may
come on for a moment. This is normal.
WARNING:
Do not keep driving if the oil pressure is low. The
engine can become so hot that it catches fire.
Someone could be burned. Check the oil as soon
as possible and have the vehicle serviced.
Notice: Lack of proper engine oil maintenance can
damage the engine. The repairs would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty. Always follow the
maintenance schedule in this manual for changing
engine oil.

Change Engine Oil Light

The vehicle may have an engine oil life system that
indicates when the oil needs to be changed.
When the change engine oil light comes on, it means
that the engine oil needs to be changed.
Once the engine oil has been changed, the engine oil
life system must be reset. After reset, the change
engine oil light goes out.
See Engine Oil Life System on page 6 18, Scheduled
Maintenance on page 7 3 and Engine Oil on
page 6 15 for more information.
