5. Driver Information Display (DID) Area
The odometer display shows the total distance the ve-
hicle has been driven. The trip odometer shows indi-
vidual trip mileage.
NOTE:U.S. Federal regulations require that upon trans-
fer of vehicle 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 he/she
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.
The DID features an interactive display. Refer to “Driver
Information Display (DID)” in this section for further
information.

Oil Change Required
Your vehicle is equipped with an engine oil change
indicator system. The “Oil Change Required” message

change interval. The engine oil change indicator system

interval may fluctuate, dependent upon your personal
driving style.
