24 In Brief
Fuel (2.5L Engine)
Regular Fuel
Use only unleaded gasoline rated
87 octane or higher in your vehicle.
Do not use gasoline with an octane
rating lower as it may result in
vehicle damage and lower fuel
economy. SeeFuel0226.
Fuel (2.0L Engine)
Premium Recommended Fuel
Use premium 93 octane unleaded
gasoline in your vehicle. Unleaded
gasoline with an octane rating as low as 87 may be used, but it will
reduce performance and fuel
economy. See
Fuel0226.
E85 or FlexFuel
No E85 or FlexFuel
Gasoline-ethanol fuel blends greater
than E15 (15% ethanol by volume),
such as E85, cannot be used in this
vehicle.
Engine Oil Life System
The engine oil life system calculates
engine oil life based on vehicle use
and displays the CHANGE ENGINE
OIL SOON message when it is time
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
1. Using the DIC controls on the right side of the steering wheel,
display REMAINING OIL LIFE
on the DIC.
See Driver Information Center
(DIC) (Base Level) 0131 or
Driver Information Center (DIC)
(Uplevel) 0134. When
remaining oil life is low, the
CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON
message will appear on the
display. See Engine Oil
Messages 0143.
2. Press
Von the DIC controls
and hold down for a few
seconds to clear the CHANGE
ENGINE OIL SOON message
and reset the oil life at 100%.
Be careful not to reset the oil
life display accidentally at any
time other than after the oil is
changed. It cannot be reset
accurately until the next oil
change.
See Engine Oil Life System 0247.

. The transmitter is in the vehicle.
. The hood is not closed.
. There is an emission control
system malfunction and the
malfunction indicator lamp is on. The engine will turn off during a
remote vehicle start if:
.
The coolant temperature gets
too high.
. The oil pressure gets low.
The RKE transmitter range may be
reduced while the vehicle is running.
Other conditions can affect the
performance of the transmitter.

engine and it may not be covered
by the vehicle warranty. See
Engine Overheating0255.
The engine coolant temperature
warning light comes on when the
engine has overheated.
If this happens, pull over and turn
off the engine as soon as possible.
See Engine Overheating 0255.
Tire Pressure Light
For vehicles with the Tire Pressure
Monitor System (TPMS), this light
comes on briefly when the engine is
started. It provides information
about tire pressures and the TPMS. When the Light Is On Steady
This indicates that one or more of
the tires are significantly
underinflated.
A Driver Information Center (DIC)
tire pressure message may also
display. See
Tire Messages 0147.
Stop as soon as possible, and
inflate the tires to the pressure value
shown on the Tire and Loading
Information label. See Tire Pressure
0 279.
When the Light Flashes First and
Then Is On Steady
If the light flashes for about a minute
and then stays on, there may be a
problem with the TPMS. If the
problem is not corrected, the light
will come on at every ignition cycle.
See Tire Pressure Monitor
Operation 0281.
Engine Oil Pressure Light
Caution
Lack of proper engine oil
maintenance can damage the
engine. Driving with the engine oil
low can also damage the engine.
The repairs would not be covered
by the vehicle warranty. Check
the oil level as soon as possible.
Add oil if required, but if the oil
level is within the operating range
and the oil pressure is still low,
have the vehicle serviced. Always
follow the maintenance schedule
for changing engine oil.
This light should come on briefly as
the engine is started. If it does not
come on, have the vehicle serviced
by your dealer.

Oil Life :Displays an estimate of
the oil's remaining useful life.
If REMAINING OIL LIFE 99% is
displayed, that means 99% of the
current oil life remains.
When the remaining oil life is low,
the CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON
message will appear on the display.
See Engine Oil Messages 0143.
The oil should be changed as soon
as possible. See Engine Oil0245.
In addition to the engine oil life
system monitoring the oil life,

Displays
the coolant temperature in degrees
Celsius (°C) or degrees
Fahrenheit (°F).
Tire Pressure : Displays the
approximate pressures of all four
tires. Tire pressure is displayed in
kilopascal (kPa) or pounds per
square inch (psi). If the pressure is
low, the value for that tire is shown
in amber.

is not engaged. When ACC has
been engaged, the Follow Distance
Indicator page switches to the Gap
Setting page. This page shows the
current gap setting along with the
vehicle ahead indicator. Best Average Fuel Economy :
The
right hand side displays the best
average fuel economy (AFE) that is
achieved for a selected distance.
The left hand side displays a
running average of fuel economy for
the most recently traveled selected
distance. The center bar graph
displays the instantaneous fuel
economy. Quickly press the
V
button to display a page for
selecting one of the distance
options. Move the up/down arrow to
choose the selection, and
Vto
change the setting. When viewing
best AFE, a several second press
and hold of
Vwill reset the best
value. The best value will show “- -

been traveled. The display provides
feedback on how current driving
behavior in the bar graph affects the
running average in the left display
and how well recent driving
compares to the best that has been
achieved.
