When the change engine oil light or CHANGE
ENGINE OIL DIC message comes on, it means
that service is required for your vehicle. See
Change Engine Oil Light on page 216orDIC
Warnings and Messages on page 224. Have your
vehicle serviced as soon as possible within the
next 600 miles (1 000 km). It is possible that, if you
are driving under the best conditions, the engine
oil life system may not indicate that vehicle service
is necessary for over a year. However, your
engine oil and lter must be changed at least once
a year and at this time the system must be
reset. Your dealer/retailer has trained service
technicians who will perform this work using
genuine parts and reset the system.
If the engine oil life system is ever reset
accidentally, you must service your vehicle within
3,000 miles (5 000 km) since your last service.
Remember to reset the oil life system whenever
the oil is changed. SeeEngine Oil Life System on
page 408for information on the Engine Oil Life
System and resetting the system.
