ENGINE OIL LIFE SYSTEM

HOW TO RESET THE ENGINE OIL LIFE SYSTEM AND THE OIL LIFE INDICATOR
The Engine Oil Life System calculates when to change your engine oil and filter based on vehicle use. Anytime your oil is changed, reset the system so it can calculate when the next oil change is required. If a situation occurs where you change your oil prior to a "Change Engine Oil" Message in the DIC being turned on, reset the system.

BASE AUDIO SYSTEM
Press the "CLR" button located to the right of the DIC display to acknowledge the "Change Engine Oil message". This will clear the message from the display and reset it.

To reset the oil life indicator, use the following steps:

1. Press the "up" or "down" arrow on the "INFO" button located to the right of the DIC display to access the DIC menu.
2. Once "XXX% ENGINE OIL LIFE" menu item is highlighted, press and hold the "CLR" button. The percentage will return to "100", and the oil life indicator will be reset.
3. Turn the key to "OFF".

If the" Change Engine Oil" message comes back on when you start your vehicle or the percentage does not return to "100", the engine oil life system has not reset. Repeat the procedure.

NAVIGATION SYSTEM
If you select this item, the percentage of remaining oil life is displayed. If you see 99% Oil Life on the display, that means that 99% of the current oil life remains.

When the oil life is depleted, the "Change Engine Oil" message will appear on the display. See your dealer for service. In addition to the Engine Oil Life System monitoring the oil life, additional maintenance is recommended. See "Maintenance Schedule".

Press the display button to acknowledge the "Change Engine Oil" message. This will clear the message from the display and reset it.

When you reset the "Change Engine Oil" message by clearing it from the display, you still must reset the engine oil life monitor separately.

To reset the oil life indicator, use the following steps:

1. Turn the ignition to "ON" with the engine running.
2. Turn the system on by pressing the "PWR/VOL" knob located to the lower left of the DIC display screen.
3. Press and hold the vehicle information display button located in the upper right of the screen for 3 seconds to enter the vehicle information menu.
4. Use the scroll "up" or "down" display keys to select "Engine Oil Life".
5. Press and hold the "RESET" button on the display. The percentage will return to "100", and the oil life indicator will be reset. Repeat the steps if the percentage does not return to "100".
6. Press the "RETURN" button on the display to return to the main page.
7. Turn the key to "OFF".

WHAT TO DO WITH USED OIL
Used engine oil contains certain elements that may be unhealthy for your skin and could even cause cancer. Do not let used oil stay on your skin for very long. Clean your skin and nails with soap and water, or a good hand cleaner. Wash or properly dispose of clothing or rags containing used engine oil. See the manufacturer's warnings about the use and disposal of oil products.

Used oil can be a threat to the environment. If you change your own oil, be sure to drain all the oil from the filter before disposal. Never dispose of oil by putting it in the trash, pouring it on the ground, into sewers, or into streams or bodies of water. Instead, recycle it by taking it to a place that collects used oil. If you have a problem properly disposing of your used oil, ask your dealer, a service station or a local recycling center for help.
