SCHEDULED SERVICING
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.
This means that service is required for your
vehicle. Operating conditions such as
frequent short-trips, trailer tow, or extremely
hot or cold ambient temperatures will influ
-

oil message to illuminate as early as
3,500

km) since last reset.

possible, within the next 500

km).
On vehicles equipped with an instrument
cluster display, “Oil Change Required” will
