Oil Maintenance Mode (If Equipped)
The oil maintenance mode is equipped on Energi models only. The oil
maintenance mode keeps the engine oil quality in good condition when
you drive the vehicle with limited engine use. If the vehicle is in oil
maintenance mode when you start the vehicle, a message will appear in
the instrument cluster. While the vehicle is in oil maintenance mode, the
vehicle will run the engine as necessary.
If you select the EV Now mode while the vehicle is in the oil
maintenance mode, EV Now mode will be suspended for as long
as you are in oil maintenance mode.
The oil maintenance mode will resume the next time you start the
vehicle. Changing the engine oil and resetting the oil life monitoring
system will suspend the oil maintenance mode.
