SCHEDULED SERVICING

Your vehicle is equipped with an automatic
oil change indicator system. The oil change
indicator system will remind you that it is
time to take your vehicle in for scheduled
maintenance.
Based on engine operation conditions, the oil
change indicator message will illuminate. This
means that service is required for your vehicle.
Operating
conditions
such
short-trips, or extremely hot or cold ambient
temperatures will influence when the "Oil
Change Required" message is displayed.
Severe Operating Conditions can cause the
change oil message to illuminate as early as
3,500 miles (5,600 km) (engine on miles)
since last reset. Have your vehicle serviced as
soon as possible, within the next 500 miles
(805 km). Additional information regarding
the oil quality of your vehicle can be found by
checking the Oil Life display that shows the
percentage life remaining on the current oil
refer to "Vehicle Info" in "Instrument Cluster
Display" in "Getting To Know Your Instrument
Panel" for further information.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE

NOTE:
Even though the vehicle may not have been
driven, both the fuel in the tank and oil in the
engine will still degrade over time. Addition-
ally, there will be a notification to the driver
if the engine is being run to maintain the oil
and fuel systems.
An authorized dealer will reset the oil change
indicator message after completing the
scheduled oil change. If a scheduled oil
as
frequent
change is performed by someone other than
an authorized dealer, the message can be
reset by referring to "Vehicle Info" in "Instru-
ment Cluster Display" in "Getting To Know
Your Instrument Panel".
NOTE:
Under no circumstances should oil change
intervals exceed 10,000 miles (16,000 km)
(engine on miles), 12 months or 350 hours
of engine run time; whichever comes first.
The 350 hours of engine run or idle time is
generally only a concern for fleet customers.
