Oil Change Setting Interval
Oil replacement period can be selected from the flexible setting or
fixed setting, or it can be set to non-display.
The flexible setting is available only in the United States and Puerto
Rico. Once engine oil flexible maintenance is selected, the vehicle
calculates the remaining oil life based on the engine operating
conditions. The vehicle lets you know when an oil change is due by
illuminating the wrench indicator light in the instrument cluster.
Distance (mile or km)
(Displays only in fixed
setting) Displays the distance until the oil replacement is due.
Select this item to set the oil replacement distance.
The wrench indication/indicator light in the instrument cluster will be \
illuminated when the remaining distance is less than 1,000 km or
600 mile.
Oil life (%)
(Displays only in
flexible setting) Displays the engine oil life until the oil replacement is due.
The wrench indication/indicator light in the instrument cluster will be \
illuminated when the remaining oil life distance is less than 1,000 km
(600 mile), or remaining days are less than 15 (whichever comes first).
Reset
In flexible setting
Resets the remaining distance until oil replacement is due to the initial
value.
