ENGINE OIL CHANGE REQUIRED — IF EQUIPPED
The telltale is illuminated only for a limited time.
NOTE:
After the first indication, each time the engine is started
the symbol will continue to illuminate as described above
until the oil is changed.
If the telltale flashes, this does not mean that there is a
fault on the vehicle, rather it simply reports that it is now
necessary to change the oil as a result of regular use of
the vehicle. The deterioration of engine oil is accelerated
by using the vehicle for short drives, preventing the
engine from reaching operating temperature.
Contact an authorized dealer as soon as possible.
Warning Lights
What It Means
What To Do
CAUTION!
Deteriorated engine oil should be replaced
as soon as possible after the symbol is
switched on, and never more than
500 miles (805 km) after it first switches
on. Failure to observe the above may result
in severe damage to the engine and
invalidate the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
When this symbol comes on, it does not
mean that the level of engine oil is low, so if
it flashes you do not need to top up the
engine oil.
