display ENGINE OIL LIFE, then press and hold the
INFO RESET button until 100% ENGINE OIL
LIFE is displayed. (This only needs to be reset after
you have had the oil changed.)

TRANSMISSION FLUID LIFE MONITOR:
Under normal conditions, the rate of deterioration
of the transmission fluid is slow. See ªMaintenance
Scheduleº in the Index for proper fluid and change
intervals. To reset the transmission fluid life, press

OUTSIDE TEMP (Temperature): This message
shows the outside temperature. After this display has
been on the DIC for about five seconds, the words
OUTSIDE TEMP will disappear so that only the
temperature remains.
MILES RANGE: This message shows about how
many miles you can drive without refilling your fuel
tank. Once the range drops below 40 miles (64 km)
remaining, the display will show LOW.
MPG INST (Instantaneous Miles per Gallon):
This message shows the instantaneous fuel economy
which varies with your driving conditions, such as
acceleration, braking and the grade of the road being
traveled. The INFO RESET button does not function
in this mode.
BATTERY VOLTS: This message shows the current
battery voltage. If the voltage is normal the display will
show BATTERY VOLTS OK. If the voltage drops
below 10.5 volts, the display will show BATTERY
VOLTS LOW. If the voltage is above 16 volts, the
display will show BATTERY VOLTS HIGH. If the
display shows the high or low message, you will need
to have your battery checked. See ªDriver Information

more information.LF-RF-LR-RR TIRE (If Equipped):On vehicles
equipped with the tire pressure monitor, this message
shows the tire pressure for each tire (left front, right
front, left rear and right rear). Pressing the INFO button
will scroll through the tire pressure for each of the four
tires, such as the following:

34 PSI LF TIRE OK or

234 kPa LF TIRE OK
If a tire pressure is below 25 PSI (172 kPa) or above
38 PSI (265 kPa), the message will appear as shown
above except it will show TIRE LOW or TIRE HIGH as
appropriate. If desired, the tire pressure information can
be programmed not to appear when using the INFO
button to scroll through the DIC displays. See ªVehicle
Programming and Personalization Featuresº in the Index.
If a low or high tire pressure is detected by the system
while driving, a CHECK TIRE PRESSURE message
will appear in the display. If this occurs, press the INFO
button to scroll to the tire(s) with a low or high pressure
condition. See ªDriver Information Center (DIC)
Messagesº later in this section for more information.
ENG/MET (English/Metric): Press this button to
display information in the English (miles) or metric
(kilometers) system.

2-91 Driver Information Center (DIC) Messages
These messages will appear if there is a problem sensed
in one of your vehicle's systems. Vehicles that are first
sold in Canada will have a number after each message.
This number helps to identify the problem. You must
then press INFO or INFO RESET to clear the display
screen for further use. However, be sure to take any
message that appears on the display screen seriously and
remember that pressing the INFO or INFO RESET button
will only make the message disappear, not the problem.
DIC messages can also be displayed in French, German,
Spanish and Japanese. Contact your dealer to have the
language display adjusted for your vehicle.
BATTERY NOT CHARGING
- 7: This message
will appear if the battery is not being charged. Have the
electrical system checked by your dealership at your
earliest convenience.
BATTERY SAVER ACTIVE
- 27: This message
is displayed when the vehicle has detected that the
battery voltage is dropping beyond a reasonable point.
The battery saver system will start reducing certain
features of the vehicle that you may not be able to
notice. At the point that features are disabled, this
message is displayed. It means that the vehicle is trying
to save the charge in the battery. Turn off unnecessary
accessories to allow the battery to recharge.BATTERY VOLTAGE HIGH
- 8: This message
shows that the electrical charging system is overcharging
(more than 16 volts). To avoid being stranded, have the
electrical system checked by your dealership. You can
reduce the charging overload by using the accessories.
Turn on the lamps and radio, set the climate control on
AUTO and the fan speed on HI, and turn the rear window
defogger on. You can monitor battery voltage on the
DIC by pressing the INFO button. The normal range is
11.5 to 15.5 volts when the engine is running.
BATTERY VOLTAGE LOW
- 6: This message
will appear when the electrical system is charging
less than 10.5 volts or if the battery has been drained.
If this message appears immediately after starting,
it is possible that the generator can still recharge the
battery. The battery should recharge while driving but
may take a few hours to do so. Consider using an
auxiliary charger (be sure to follow the manufacturer's
instructions) to boost the battery after returning home
or to a final destination. If this message appears while
driving or after starting your vehicle and stays on, have
it checked immediately to determine the cause of this
problem. To help the generator recharge the battery
quickly, you can reduce the load on the electrical system
by turning off the accessories. You can monitor battery
voltage on the DIC by pressing the INFO button.
The normal range is 11.5 to 15.5 volts.

2-92
CHANGE BRAKE PADS - 125: This message is used
to notify you that the brake pads may have worn down.
A sensor is connected to the brake pads and is triggered
when they wear to a certain point. Have the front and
rear brakes serviced by your dealer as soon as possible.
CHANGE ENGINE OIL
- 82: This means that
the life of the engine oil has expired and it should be
changed within 200 miles. See ªEngine Oilº and ªFilter
Recommendationsº in the Index. After an oil change,
the Oil Life Indicator must be reset. See ªOil Life
Indicator, How to Resetº in the Index.
CHANGE TRANS FLUID
- 47: This message will
appear when it is time to replace the transaxle fluid.
See ªMaintenance Scheduleº in the Index for the
proper fluid and change intervals.
CHECK BRAKE FLUID
- 37: This message will
display if the ignition is in ON to inform the driver
that the brake fluid level is low. Have the brake
system serviced by a technician as soon as possible.
See ªBrake System Warning Lightº in the Index.
CHECK COOLANT LEVEL
- 2: This message
will appear when there is a low level of engine coolant.
Have the cooling system serviced by a technician as
soon as possible.CHECK FUEL GAGE
- 50: This message will appear
when the fuel supply is less than 5 gallons (18.9 L) and
the display is turned off. A single chime will also sound
when this message is displayed.
CHECK GAS CAP
- 61: This message will appear
if the gas cap has not been fully tightened. You should
recheck your gas cap to ensure that it's on properly.
CHECK OIL LEVEL
- 36: For correct operation of
the low oil sensing system, your vehicle should be on
a level surface. A false CHECK OIL LEVEL message
may appear if the vehicle is parked on grades. The oil
level sensing system does not check for actual oil level
if the engine has been off for a short period of time,
and the oil level is never sensed while the engine is
running. If the CHECK OIL LEVEL message appears,
and your vehicle has been parked on level ground with
the engine off for at least 30 minutes, the oil level
should be checked by observing the oil dipstick.
Prior to checking the oil level, be sure the engine has
been off for a few minutes and your vehicle is on a
level surface. Then check the dipstick and add oil
if necessary. See ªEngine Oilº in the Index.

there may be a problem with your stability enhancement
system. If you see this message, try to reset the system
(stop, turn off the engine, then start the engine again).
If the SERVICE STABILITY SYS message still
comes on, it means there is a problem. You should see
your dealer for service. Reduce your speed and drive
