MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
For information on the maintenance procedures for your vehicle, please refer to
“Maintenance Procedures” in “Maintaining And Caring For Your Vehicle” in your
Owner’s Manual or applicable supplement on the DVD for further details.
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
Your vehicle is equipped with an automatic oil change indicator system. The oil
change indicator system will remind you that it is time to take your vehicle in for
scheduled maintenance.
Based on engine operation conditions, the oil change indicator message will
illuminate in the instrument cluster. This means that service is required for your
vehicle. Operating conditions such as frequent short-trips, trailer tow and extremely
hot or cold ambient temperatures will influence when the “Change Oil” or “Oil
Change Required” message is displayed. Severe Operating Conditions can cause the
change oil message to illuminate as early as 3,500 miles (5,600 km) since last reset.
Have your vehicle serviced as soon as possible, within the next 500 miles (805 km).
Your authorized dealer will reset the oil change indicator message after completing
the scheduled oil change. If a scheduled oil change is performed by someone other
than your authorized dealer, the message can be reset by referring to the steps
described under “Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)” or “Driver Informa-
tion Display (DID)” in “Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel” in your Owner’s
Manual on the DVD for further information.
