attempting to use the HDC feature, the HDC
indicator lamp will flash on/off. 10. Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC) Display/Odometer Display
The odometer display shows the total distance
the vehicle has been driven.
Regulations require that upon transfer of ve-
hicle ownership, the seller certify to the pur-
chaser the correct mileage that the vehicle has
been driven. If your odometer needs to be
repaired or serviced, the repair technician
should leave the odometer reading the same as
it was before the repair or service. If s/he
cannot do so, then the odometer must be set at
zero, and a sticker must be placed in the door
jamb stating what the mileage was before the
repair or service. It is a good idea for you to
make a record of the odometer reading before
the repair/service, so that you can be sure that
it is properly reset, or that the door jamb sticker
is accurate if the odometer must be reset at
zero.
When the appropriate conditions exist, this
display shows the Electronic Vehicle Informa-
tion Center (EVIC) messages. Refer to “Elec-
tronic Vehicle Information Center”.

3. Do not apply paper or tape to the disc; avoid
scratching the disc.
4. Do not use solvents such as benzene, thin-
ner, cleaners, or anti-static sprays.

that it is time to take your vehicle in for sched-
uled maintenance.

(EVIC) equipped vehicles “Oil Change Re-
quired” will be displayed in the EVIC and a
single chime will sound, indicating that an oil
change is necessary.
The oil change indicator message will illumi-
nate approximately 7,000 miles (11 200 km)
after the most recent oil change was per-
formed. Have your vehicle serviced as soon as
possible, within 500 miles (800 km).

tronic Vehicle Information Center” in “Under-
standing Your Instrument Panel” for further in-
formation.
