Oil Life Reset
• Your vehicle is equipped with an engine oil change indicator system. The “OilChange Due” message will flash in the EVIC display for approximately 10 seconds
after a single chime has sounded to indicate the next scheduled oil change
interval. 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 ignition switch to the ON/RUN position or cycle the ignition to the ON/RUN position if
equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go. To turn off the message temporarily, push and
release the MENU button. To reset the oil change indicator system (after perform-
ing the scheduled maintenance), refer to the following procedure:

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER INDICATOR LIGHTS
A- Stop/Start Indicator — If Equipped
This icon indicates that the Stop/Start System is active. Whenever the system is
active, the telltale will illuminate in the instrument cluster. Refer to “Stop Start
System” in “Operating Your Vehicle” in this manual.
– Turn Signal Indicator
The arrows will flash with the exterior turn signals when the turn signal lever is
operated. A tone will chime, and a EVIC/DID message will appear if either turn signal
is left on for more than 1 mile (1.6 km).
NOTE:
If either indicator flashes at a rapid rate, check for a defective outside light bulb.
– High Beam Indicator
Indicates that headlights are on high beam.
– Front Fog Light Indicator
This indicator will illuminate when the front fog lights are on.
– Vehicle Security Light
This light will flash rapidly for approximately 15 seconds when the vehicle security
alarm is arming. The light will flash at a slower speed continuously after the alarm is
set. The security light will also come on for about three seconds when the ignition is
first turned on.
- Fuel Cap/Loose Gas Cap EVIC Message
• If a “gas cap” message (shown as gASCAP) appears, tighten the gas cap until a“clicking” sound is heard.
• If the message continues to appear for more than three days after tightening the gas cap, see your authorized service center.

8. Mount the spare tire.
CAUTION!
Be sure to mount the spare tire with the valve stem facing outward. The vehicle
could be damaged if the spare tire is mounted incorrectly.
NOTE: • For vehicles so equipped, do not attempt to install a center cap or wheel coveron the compact spare.
• Refer to “Compact Spare Tire” and to “Limited-Use Spare” under “Tires— General Information” in “Starting and Operating” in the Owner's Manual on the
DVD for additional warnings, cautions, and information about the spare tire, its
use, and operation.
9. Install the wheel bolts with the threaded end of the wheel bolt toward the wheel. Lightly tighten the wheel bolts.
WARNING!
To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the jack, do not fully tighten the wheel
bolts until the vehicle has been lowered. Failure to follow this warning may result
in serious injury.
10. Lower the vehicle to the ground by turning the jack handle counterclockwise.
11. Finish tightening the lug bolts. Push down on the wrench while at the end of the handle for increased leverage. Tighten the lug bolts in a star pattern until each
nut has been tightened twice. The correct wheel bolt tightness is 100 ft lb
(135 N·m). If in doubt about the correct tightness, have them checked with a
torque wrench by your authorized dealer or at a service station.
12. Securely stow the jack, tools, chocks and flat tire.
WARNING!
A loose tire or jack thrown forward in a collision or hard stop could endanger the
occupants of the vehicle. Always stow the jack parts and the spare tire in the
places provided. Have the deflated (flat) tire repaired or replaced immediately.

FREEING A STUCK VEHICLE
If your vehicle becomes stuck in mud, sand or snow, it can often be moved using a
rocking motion. Turn the steering wheel right and left to clear the area around the
front wheels. Press and hold the lock button on the shift lever. Then shift back and
forth between DRIVE and REVERSE, while gently pressing the accelerator.
NOTE:
Shifts between DRIVE and REVERSE can only be achieved at wheel speeds of 5 mph
(8 km/h) or less. Whenever the transmission remains in NEUTRAL for more than two
seconds, you must push the brake pedal to engage DRIVE or REVERSE.
Use the least amount of accelerator pedal pressure that will maintain the rocking
motion without spinning the wheels or racing the engine.
CAUTION!
• Racing the engine or spinning the wheels may lead to transmission overheatingand failure. Allow the engine to idle with the transmission in NEUTRAL for at
least one minute after every five rocking-motion cycles. This will minimize
overheating and reduce the risk of transmission failure during prolonged efforts
to free a stuck vehicle.
• When “rocking” a stuck vehicle by shifting between DRIVE and REVERSE, do
not spin the wheels faster than 15 mph (24 km/h), or drivetrain damage may
result.
• Revving the engine or spinning the wheels too fast may lead to transmission
overheating and failure. It can also damage the tires. Do not spin the wheels
above 30 mph (48 km/h) while in gear (no transmission shifting occurring).
NOTE:
Push the “ESC Off” switch (if necessary), to place the Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
system in “Partial Off” mode, before rocking the vehicle. Refer to “Electronic Brake
Control” in “Starting And Operating” in the Owner’s Manual on the DVD for further
information. Once the vehicle has been freed, push the "ESC Off" switch again to restore
“ESC On” mode.
WARNING!
Fast spinning tires can be dangerous. Forces generated by excessive wheel speeds
may cause damage, or even failure, of the axle and tires. A tire could explode and
injure someone. Do not spin your vehicle's wheels faster than 30 mph (48 km/h)
or for longer than 30 seconds continuously without stopping when you are stuck
and do not let anyone near a spinning wheel, no matter what the speed.
