NORMAL SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE AND LOG
Your vehicle is equipped with a oil minder system that indicates when
the engine oil needs to be changed under normal operating conditions.
This means you do not have to remember to change the oil on a
mileage-based schedule; the vehicle lets you know when an oil change is
due by displaying ENGINE OIL CHANGE DUE NEXT SERVICE or OIL
CHANGE REQUIRED in the information display.
