change information will illuminate on the display
for approximately 5 seconds. The wrench symbol
and distance to oil change switch to oil display
status. Then the oil display status switches to
odometer and twin trip odometer/trip computer
information mode that was displayed before the
ignition switch was placed in the ACC, OFF or
LOCK position.
The oil level display status provides specific in-
formation regarding your approximate engine oil
level.
If the oil level is sufficient, “Oil Good” is displayed
for approximately 10 seconds. If the oil level is
low, “Oil Lo” blinks for approximately 30 seconds
in order to draw your attention to necessary ac-
tion.Quickly push and release the trip computer
change button
Aon the instrument panel lo-
cated near the speedometer
Bduring the “Oil
Good” or “Oil Lo” mode to display an approxi-

In case of low engine oil level, see “Engine oil” in
the “Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section for
the proper engine oil refilling procedure.

It is possible to adjust the interval distance to oil
change by pushing the trip computer change
button
Aon the instrument panel located near
the speedometer
Bfor 3 seconds while the
wrench symbol and distance to oil change are
displayed. The symbol and distance display will
start flashing and the display shows the current
interval. Push the switch to increase the interval
distance. Each step increases the interval dis-
tance by 500 mi (1,000 km). The interval distance
can be set up to 18,000 mi (30,000 km) after
which the display returns to zero.
If no further action is made, the display returns to
oil display status indication and the new interval is
set. If the interval distance is set to 0, the display will
skip the distance to oil change information and
wrench symbol display mode and will directly
display the oil display status (“Oil Good” or “Oil
Lo”) . In order to return to the distance to oil
change information and wrench symbol display
mode, push the trip computer change button

ule as previously described.
See the Warranty Information & Maintenance
Booklet for the appropriate interval distance to oil
change.
CAUTION
● The oil level should be checked regu-
larly. Operating with insufficient
amount of oil level can damage the en-
