ters (km) the vehicle can be driven without
refueling.
The fuel range estimate is based on an
average of the vehicle's fuel economy over
recent driving history and the amount of
fuel remaining in the fuel tank. This esti-
mate will change if driving conditions
change. For example, if driving in traffic
and making frequent stops, this display
may read one number, but if the vehicle is
driven on a freeway, the number may
change even though the same amount of
fuel is in the fuel tank. This is because dif-
ferent driving conditions produce different
fuel economies. Generally, freeway driving
produces better fuel economy than city
driving.
If your vehicle is low on fuel, the FUEL
LEVEL LOW message will be displayed.
Refer to "FUEL LEVEL LOW" under "DIC
Warnings and Messages" in this section
for more information.

OIL LIFE
Press the vehicle information button until
OIL LIFE REMAINING displays. This dis-
play shows an estimate of the oil's remain-
ing useful life. If you see 99% OIL LIFE
REMAINING on the display, that means
99% of the current oil life remains. The
engine oil life system will alert you to
change the oil on a schedule consistent
with your driving conditions.
When the remaining oil life is low, the
CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON message
will appear on the display along with the
Change Engine Oil Light on the instrument
panel cluster. Refer to "CHANGE ENGINE
OIL SOON" under "DIC Warnings and
Messages" in this section and "Change
Engine Oil Light" in "Warning Lights,
Gages, and Indicators" in this section. You
should change the oil as soon as possible.
Refer to "Engine Oil" in "Checking Things
Under the Hood" in the "Service and
Appearance Care" section. In addition to
the engine oil life system monitoring the oil
life, additional maintenance is recom-
mended in the Maintenance Schedule in
this manual. Refer to "Scheduled Mainte-
nance" in "Maintenance Schedule" in the
"Maintenance Schedule" section for more
information.
INSTRUMENT PANEL
Remember, you must reset the OIL LIFE
yourself after each oil change. It will not
reset itself. Also, be careful not to reset the
OIL LIFE accidentally at any time other
than when the oil has just been changed. It
cannot be reset accurately until the next oil
change. To reset the engine oil life system,
refer to "Engine Oil Life System" in "Check-
ing Things Under the Hood" in the "Service
and Appearance Care" section.
