Engine Oil Life System
The engine oil life system calculates
engine oil life based on vehicle use
and displays a message on the
Driver Information Center (DIC)
when it is necessary to change the
engine oil and filter.
The oil life system should be reset
to 100% only following an oil
change.
Resetting the Oil Life System
Reset the system whenever the
engine oil is changed so that the
system can calculate the next
engine oil change. It will not reset
itself. To reset the system:
Base Level Cluster
1. Press the MENU button to
show Remaining Oil Life on the
display. This display shows an
estimate of the oil
’
s remaining
useful life. If 99% is displayed,
that means that 99% of the
current oil life remains.
2. To reset the engine oil life
system, press SET/CLR while
the oil life display is active.
After a few seconds, the oil life
will be reset to 100%. Be
careful not to reset the oil life
display accidentally at any time
other than after the oil is
changed. It cannot be reset
accurately.
If the
:
% CHANGE message in
the DIC comes back on when the
vehicle is started, the engine oil life
system has not reset. Repeat the
procedure.
Uplevel Cluster

starting the engine.
2. Press the DIC MENU button on
the turn signal lever to enter
the Vehicle Information Menu.

life at 100%.
