Resetting the Oil Life System

The Oil Life System calculates engine

oil life based on vehicle use and dis-

plays Change Oil Soon in the Driver

Information Center (DIC) when it's nec-

essary to change your engine oil and fil-

ter. The Oil Life System should be reset

to 100% only following an oil change.

To Reset the Oil Life System:

1. Press MENU once. The DIC will

display Oil Life Reset.

2. Press and hold ENTER for at least

one second.

3. An Acknowledged message will

display for three seconds when the

system has been reset.

See Section 5 of your Owner Manual.

Securing the Fuel Cap

If the Check Gas Cap message is dis-

played on the Driver Information Center

when the ignition is turned to Run or

Start, check that your fuel cap is

securely fastened. If the cap is not

secure, turn it clockwise until a clicking

sound is heard, indicating that it is

properly installed.

The Check Gas Cap message will turn

off after a few driving trips with the cap

properly installed.

See Section 3 of your Owner Manual.
