Engine Oil Replacement Reminder Reset - Procedure 03
CAUTION:
This vehicle has a computer system that indicates when to change the engine oil and filter. This is based on engine revolutions and engine temperature, and not on mileage. Based on driving conditions, the mileage at which an oil change is indicated can vary considerably. For the oil life system to work properly, the system must be reset every time the oil is changed. If the system is ever reset accidentally
, the oil must be changed at 5 000 km (3,000 miles) since the last oil change. Remember to reset the oil life system whenever the oil is changed.
- Turn the ignition key to ON/RUN with the engine off.
- Press and release the stem in the lower center of the instrument cluster until the OIL LIFE message is displayed.
- Once the alternating OIL LIFE and RESET messages appear, press and hold the stem until several beeps sound. This confirms that the oil life system has been reset.
- Turn the key to LOCK/OFF.
NOTE:
If the CHANGE OIL message comes on again and stays on for 30 seconds at the next ignition cycle, it did not reset. The system needs to be reset again.
