Engine Oil Life System
The engine oil life system calculates engine oil life
based on vehicle use and displays a DIC message when
it is necessary to change the engine oil and filter.
Resetting the Oil Life System
1. Turn the ignition to ON/RUN, with the engine off.
2. Press and release the stem in the lower center
of the instrument cluster until the OIL LIFE
message is displayed.
3. Once the alternating OIL LIFE and RESET
messages appear, press and hold the stem
until several beeps sound. This confirms that the oil
life system has been reset.
4. Turn the key to LOCK/OFF.
See Engine Oil Life System on page 6-18.
