After changing the engine oil, reset the system by
doing the following:
1. Press and release the trip/reset button until
the OIL LIFE message is displayed.
2. Then press and hold the trip/reset button until
a chime sounds five times, and RESET is
displayed in the message center.
When the system is reset, the odometer will
again be displayed in the message center.
3. Turn the ignition key to LOCK.
If the CHG OIL message comes back on when
you start your vehicle, the engine oil life system
has not reset. Repeat the procedure.
Your vehicle has a unique oil filter element. When
installing the filler cap do not exceed 18 lb-ft
(25 Y ). Inspect the condition of the O-ring and
replace if damaged. See your Saturn retailer
for additional information.
What to Do with Used Oil
Used engine oil contains certain elements that
may be unhealthy for your skin and could
even cause cancer. Do not let used oil stay on
your skin for very long. Clean your skin and nails
with soap and water, or a good hand cleaner.
Wash or properly dispose of clothing or rags
containing used engine oil. See the manufacturer's
warnings about the use and disposal of oil
products.
Used oil can be a threat to the environment. If you
change your own oil, be sure to drain all the oil
from the filter before disposal. Never dispose of oil
by putting it in the trash, pouring it on the
ground, into sewers, or into streams or bodies of
water. Instead, recycle it by taking it to a place
that collects used oil. If you have a problem
properly disposing of used oil, ask your retailer,
a service station or a local recycling center
for help.
