CHAngE OIL
Your vehicle is equipped with an en-
gine oil change indicator system. The
“CHAngE OIL” message will flash in
the instrument cluster odometer for
approximately 12 seconds after a
single chime has sounded to indicate
the next scheduled oil change inter-
val. The engine oil change indicator
system is duty cycle based, which
means the engine oil change interval
may fluctuate dependent upon your
personal driving style.
Unless reset, this message will continue
to display each time you turn the igni-
tion switch to the “ON/RUN” position.
To turn off the message temporarily, press and release the Trip Odometer
button on the instrument cluster. To
reset the oil change indicator system
(after performing the scheduled main-
tenance) perform the following proce-
dure:
1.
Turn the ignition switch to the
ON/RUN position (do not start the
engine).
2.
Fully depress the accelerator
pedal slowly 3 times within 10 sec-
onds.
3. Turn the ignition switch to the
LOCK position.
NOTE: If the indicator message
illuminates when you start the
vehicle, the oil change indicator
system did not reset. If necessary,
repeat this procedure. 4.

Electronic Vehicle Information Cen-
ter (EVIC), refer to “Electronic Ve-
hicle Information Center (EVIC)”.
