Change Oil Message

This vehicle is equipped with an engine oil change indicator system. The CHANGE OIL  message flashes in place of the instrument cluster odometer for approximately 12 seconds after a single chime has sounded to indicate the next scheduled oil change interval has been attained. 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 continues to display each time the ignition switch status transitions to ON. To turn off the message temporarily, press and release the trip odometer push button on the instrument cluster. To reset the oil change indicator system, (after performing the scheduled maintenance) perform the following procedure:

1. Set the ignition switch to the ON status. (Do not start the engine).
2. Fully press the accelerator pedal slowly three times within 10 seconds.
3. Set the ignition switch to the LOCK status.
   NOTE:

   If the indicator message illuminates when you start the vehicle, the oil change indicator system did not reset. If necessary, repeat this procedure
