How to Reset the Oil Life Indicator
After the oil has been changed, display the ENGINE
OIL LIFE message by pressing the INFO button. Then
press and hold the INFO RESET button until the display
shows "100." This resets the oil life index. The message
will remain off until the next oil change is needed.
The percentage of oil life remaining may be checked at
any time by pressing the INFO button several times until
the ENGINE
O I L
LIFE message appears. For more
information on the Oil Life feature, see "Oil Life
Indicator" in the Index.
What to Do with Used Oil
Did you know that used engine oil contains certain
elements that may be unhealthy for your skin and could
even cause cancer? Don't 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 throw
away 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
real threat to the environment. If you
change your own oil, be sure to drain all free-flowing oil
from the filter before disposal. Don't ever 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 your used oil,
ask your dealer, a service station or a local recycling
center for help.
