stop as soon as possible and inflate
the tires to the recommended
pressure shown on the Tire and
Loading Information label. See
Vehicle Load Limits on page 9-14.
The warning light will remain on until
the tire pressure is corrected.
The low tire pressure warning light
may come on in cool weather when
the vehicle is first started, and then
turn off as the vehicle is driven. This
may be an early indicator that the
tire pressures are getting low and
the tires need to be inflated to the
proper pressure.
The TPMS does not replace normal
monthly tire maintenance. Maintain
the correct tire pressures.
SeeTire Pressure Monitor System
on page 10-50.
Engine Oil Life System
The engine oil life system calculates
engine oil life based on vehicle use
and, on most vehicles, displays a
Driver Information Center (DIC)
message when it is necessary to change the engine oil and filter. The
oil life system should be reset to
100% only following an oil change.
Resetting the Oil Life System
To reset the engine oil life system:
1. Display the OIL LIFE
REMAINING on the Driver
Information System (DIC). See
Driver Information Center (DIC)
on page 5-23.
2. Press and hold SET/CLR for several seconds. The oil life will
change to 100%.
The oil life system can also be reset
as follows:
1. Turn the ignition to ON/RUN with the engine off.
2. Display OIL LIFE REMAINING on the DIC.
3. Fully press the accelerator pedal slowly three times within
five seconds. If the display
shows 100%, the system is
reset. See
Engine Oil Life System on
page 10-11.
