OIL LIFE
To access this display, the vehicle
must be in P (Park). Press the trip
odometer reset stem until OIL LIFE
REMAINING displays. This display
shows an estimate of the oil's
remaining 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.
See CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON
under Engine Oil Messages on
page 5 39. You should change the
oil as soon as you can. See Engine
Oil on page 10 8. In addition to
the engine oil life system monitoring
the oil life, additional maintenance
is recommended in the Maintenance
Schedule in this manual.
See Scheduled Maintenance on
page 11 2 for more information.
Remember, you must reset the
OIL LIFE display yourself after each
oil change. It will not reset itself.
Also, be careful not to reset the
OIL LIFE display 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,
see Engine Oil Life System on
page 10 11.

To access this display, the vehicle
must be in P (Park). If your vehicle
has the Ultrasonic Rear Parking

off. Once in this display, press and
hold the trip odometer reset stem to

URPA system is turned off and the
vehicle is shifted out of P (Park), the
DIC will display the PARK ASSIST
OFF message as a reminder that
the system has been turned off.
