•Under normal operating conditions, amessage appears in the instrumentcluster display to indicate the regularoil change interval.
•Under severe operating conditions, theoil change interval may reduce, and themessage interval may adjust.
High performance vehicles can be drivenin such a way that may lead to higher oilconsumption (this includes extended timeat high engine speeds, high loads, enginebraking, hard cornering maneuvers, andtrack use). Under these conditions, oilconsumption of approximately 1 quart per500 miles (1 liter per 800 km) is possible.As a result, the engine oil level needs to bechecked at every refueling and adjusted tomaintain proper level to avoid enginedamage.
Note:Oil level should not exceed themaximum mark on the indicator. SeeEngine Oil Check (page 262).
Your vehicle can be driven in such a waythat dilutes and increases the level of oilby short trips that do not allow the engineto get to operating temperature, extendedidling, and low speed driving for longperiods of time.
When the oil change message appears inthe instrument cluster display, it is time foran oil change. Make sure you perform theoil change within two weeks or 500 mi(800 km) of the message appearing. Makesure you reset the Intelligent Oil-LifeMonitor after each oil change. See OilChange Indicator Reset (page 263).
If your instrument cluster display resetsprematurely or becomes inoperative, youshould perform the oil change interval atsix months or 5,000 mi (8,000 km) fromyour last oil change. Never exceed one yearor 10,000 mi (16,000 km) between oilchange intervals.
