80 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL
Change Engine Oil — If Equipped
Your vehicle may be equipped with an engine oil change
indicator system. The “Change Engine Oil” message will
display in the instrument cluster display. 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. To
turn off the message temporarily, push and release the
MENU button. To reset the oil change indicator system (after
performing the scheduled maintenance), refer to the
following procedure.
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position (do not start the engine).
2. Fully push the accelerator pedal slowly, three times, within 10 seconds.
3. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF/LOCK position.
NOTE:
If the indicator message illuminates when you start the
vehicle, the oil change indicator system did not reset. If
necessary, repeat this procedure.
Instrument Cluster Display Menu Items
Speed Beep
This function is used to set a speed limit (MPH or km/h); the
driver is alerted when this limit is exceeded.
To set the desired speed limit:
1. Push the MENU button briefly. The display will show the
wording (SPEED BEEP) and the unit (MPH) or (km/h)
previously set.
2. If the function is on, push and release the up or down
arrow button to select the required speed limit and then
push MENU to confirm.
NOTE:
The speed may be set in the range from 20 to 125 MPH (30 to
200 km/h) according to the previously chosen unit.
The setting will increase/decrease by five units each time the
up or down arrow button is pushed. Hold down the up or
down arrow button to automatically increase/decrease the

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
SCHEDULED SERVICING

Your vehicle is equipped with an automatic oil change indicator
system. The oil change indicator system will remind you that it is
time to take your vehicle in for scheduled maintenance.

Based on engine operation conditions, the oil change indi-
cator message will illuminate. This means that service is
required for your vehicle. Operating conditions such as
frequent short-trips, trailer tow, extended engine idle time,
extremely hot or cold ambient temperatures will influence
when the “Oil Change Required” message is displayed.
Severe Operating Conditions can cause the change oil
message to illuminate as early as 3,500 miles (5,600 km) since
last reset. Have your vehicle serviced as soon as possible,
within the next 500 miles (805 km).

Your authorized dealer will reset the oil change indicator message
after completing the scheduled oil change. If a scheduled oil change
is performed by someone other than your authorized dealer, the
message can be reset by referring to the steps described under “Oil
Change Reset” in “Instrument Cluster Display” in “Getting To
Know Your Instrument Panel” for further information.
NOTE:
Under no circumstances should oil change intervals exceed
10,000 miles (16,000 km), 350 hours of engine run time or
12 months, whichever comes first. The 350 hours of engine run
or idle time is generally only a concern for fleet customers.

Severe Duty All Models

Change Engine Oil at 4,000 miles (6,500 km) or 350 hours of engine
run time if the vehicle is operated in a dusty and off road environ -
ment or is operated predominantly at idle, or only very low engine
RPM. This type of vehicle use is considered Severe Duty.

Once A Month Or Before A Long Trip:
• Check engine oil level.
• Check windshield washer fluid level.
• Check tire pressure and look for unusual wear or damage. Rotate tires at the first sign of irregular wear, even if it
occurs before the oil indicator system turns on.
• Check the fluid levels of the coolant reservoir and brake master cylinder, fill as needed.
• Check function of all interior and exterior lights.

262 SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
Special Additives
The manufacturer strongly recommends against using any
special additives in the transmission. Automatic Transmis-
sion Fluid (ATF) is an engineered product and its perfor -
mance may be impaired by supplemental additives.
Therefore, do not add any fluid additives to the transmis -
sion. Avoid using transmission sealers as they may
adversely affect seals. Fluid Level Check
The fluid level is preset at the factory and does not require
adjustment under normal operating conditions. Routine
fluid level checks are not required; therefore the transmis
-
sion has no dipstick. An authorized dealer can check your
transmission fluid level using special service tools. If you
notice fluid leakage or transmission malfunction, visit an
authorized dealer immediately to have the transmission
fluid level checked. Operating the vehicle with an improper
fluid level can cause severe transmission damage.
CAUTION!
Using a transmission fluid other than the manufacturer’s
recommended fluid may cause deterioration in
transmission shift quality and/or torque converter
shudder. Refer to “Fluids And Lubricants” in “Technical
Specifications” for fluid specifications.
CAUTION!
Do not use chemical flushes in your transmission as the
chemicals can damage your transmission components.
Such damage is not covered by the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
CAUTION!
If a transmission fluid leak occurs, visit an authorized
dealer immediately. Severe transmission damage may
occur. An authorized dealer has the proper tools to adjust
the fluid level accurately.
