CHAngE OIL
(Base And Mid Line Clusters Only)
Your vehicle is equipped with an engine oil
change indicator system. The “CHAngE OIL”
message will flash in the instrument cluster
odometer for approximately 12 seconds after a
single chime has sounded to indicate the next
scheduled oil change interval. The engine oil
change indicator system is duty cycle based,
which means the engine oil change interval
may fluctuate dependent upon your personal
driving style.
Unless reset, this message will continue to
display each time you turn the ignition switch to
the ON/RUN position. To turn off the message
temporarily, press and release the Trip Odom-
eter button on the instrument cluster. To reset
the oil change indicator system (after perform-
ing the scheduled maintenance) perform the
following procedure:
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN
position.
D o not start the engine.
2. Fully depress the accelerator pedal
slowly three times within 10 seconds.
3. Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK
position.
NOTE:
If the indicator message illuminates when
you start the vehicle, the oil change indica-
tor system did not reset. If necessary, repeat
this procedure.
28. Cruise Indicator Light — If Equipped
This indicator lights when the elec-
tronic speed control system is
turned on.
29. Shift Lever Indicator
The Shift Lever Indicator is self-contained
within the instrument cluster. It displays the
gear position of the automatic transmission.
30. Seat Belt Reminder Light
When the ignition switch is first turned
to ON/RUN, this light will turn on for
four to eight seconds as a bulb check.
During the bulb check, if the driver’s
seat belt is unbuckled, a chime will sound. After
the bulb check or when driving, if the driver
seat belt remains unbuckled, the Seat Belt
Warning Light will flash or remain on continu-
ously. Refer to “Occupant Restraints” in “Things
To Know Before Starting Your Vehicle” for fur-
ther information.
31. Brake Warning Light
This light monitors various brake func-
tions, including brake fluid level and
parking brake application. If the brake
light turns on it may indicate that the parking
brake is applied, that the brake fluid level is low,
or that there is a problem with the anti-lock
brake system reservoir.
If the light remains on when the parking brake
has been disengaged, and the fluid level is at
the full mark on the master cylinder reservoir, it
indicates a possible brake hydraulic system
malfunction or that a problem with the Brake
Booster has been detected by the Anti-Lock
Brake System (ABS) / Electronic Stability Con-
trol (ESC) system. In this case, the light will
remain on until the condition has been cor-
rected. If the problem is related to the brake
booster, the ABS pump will run when applying
the brake and a brake pedal pulsation may be
felt during each stop.
