If the system is ever reset
accidentally, the oil must be
changed at 5 000 km (3,000 mi)
since the last oil change.
Remember to reset the oil life
system whenever the oil is changed.

How to Reset the Engine Oil
Life System

Reset the system whenever the
engine oil is changed so that the
system can calculate the next
engine oil change. To reset the
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)

or

When

remaining oil life is low, the
CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON
message will appear on the
display. See

2. Press

V

on 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.

The system is reset when the
CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON
message is off.

If the CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON
message comes back on when the
vehicle is started, the engine oil life
system has not been reset. Repeat
the procedure.

Fluid

How to Check Automatic
Transmission Fluid

It is not necessary to check the
transmission fluid level.
A transmission fluid leak is the only
reason for fluid loss. If a leak
occurs, take the vehicle to your
dealer and have it repaired as soon
as possible.

There is a special procedure for
checking and changing the
transmission fluid. Because this
procedure is difficult, you should
have this done at your dealer.
Contact your dealer for additional
information. The procedure can be
found in the service manual. To
purchase a service manual, see
