OIL
SOON: This light will appear when the
system predicts that the oil's remaining useful life is
almost up. The system predicts remaining oil life using
inputs from length of drives, coolant temperature,
engine rpm, and vehicle speed. It alerts you to change
the oil on a schedule consistent with your vehicle's
driving conditions.
To reset your change oil soon system after an oil change,
turn the key to the ON position, without the engine
running and pump the accelerator 3 times within
5 seconds.

on
when
your ignition is on and

is low or flat. See "Check Tire Pressure Light" in

not fully closed.
