INTRODUCTIONThe oil change indicator system will remind you that
it is time to take your vehicle in for scheduled
maintenance. Based on engine operation condition
the oil change indicator message will illuminate, this
means that service is required for your vehicle. Have
your vehicle serviced as soon as possible, within the
next 800 km. The oil change indicator message will
not monitor the time since the last oil change. Change
your vehicles oil if it has been 6 months since your
last oil change even if the oil change indicator
message is NOT illuminated. Change your engine oil
more often if you drive your vehicle off-road for an
extended period of time.Under no circumstances
should oil change intervals exceed 13,000 km or
6 months, whichever comes first.Your dealer will
reset the oil change indicator message after complet-
ing the scheduled oil change. If this scheduled oil
change is performed by someone other than yourdealer the message can be reset by referring to the
steps described in the Owner’s Manual.
The performance of all scheduled service work is
required to maintain your vehicle in good operat-
ing condition. Chrysler Canada Inc. reserves the
right to deny warranty coverage if the vehicle has
not been properly maintained. While we do not
insist that such work be performed by factory
authorized retailers, we strongly recommend that
an authorized Chrysler, Jeepor Dodge Retailer
perform this work.
AT EACH STOP FOR FUEL
•Check the engine oil level about 5 minutes
after a fully warmed engine is shut off. Check-
ing the oil level while the vehicle is on level
ground will improve the accuracy of the oil
level reading. Add oil only when the level is at
or below the ADD or MIN mark.
•Check the windshield washer solvent and add
if required.ONCE A MONTH
•Check tire pressure and look for unusual wear
or damage.
•Inspect the battery and clean and tighten the
terminals as required.
•Check the fluid levels of coolant reservoir,
brake master cylinder, power steering and
transmission and add as needed.

INTRODUCTIONYour vehicle is equipped with an engine oil change
indicator system. This system will alert you when it is
time to change your engine oil by displaying the words
“Oil Change Required” on your Electronic Vehicle Infor-
mation Center (EVIC). The engine oil change indicator
system is duty cycle based, which means the engine oil
change interval may fluctuate depending on your per-
sonal driving style. Driving styles such as frequent stop
and go type driving can increase the frequency of the
engine oil change. This is the result of more frequent
regeneration of the exhaust aftertreatment system, which
can decrease the life of the engine oil. Failure to change
the engine oil per the maintenance schedule can result in
internal engine damage.
Under no circumstances should the oil change interval
exceed 12,000 km or six months whichever occurs first.
For information on resetting the Oil Change Indicator
message, refer to “Oil Change Required If
Equipped,” under “System Status (EVIC Displays)”
in the “Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC)” Section of the Owner’s Manual.The performance of all scheduled service work is
required to maintain your vehicle in good operating
condition. Chrysler Canada Inc. reserves the right to
deny warranty coverage if the vehicle has not been
properly maintained. While we do not insist that such
work be performed by factory authorized retailers,
we strongly recommend that an authorized Chrysler,
Jeepor Dodge Retailer perform this work.
