How to Reset the Engine Oil Life

System

The Engine Oil Life System calculates when to change

your engine oil and ﬁlter based on vehicle use.

Anytime your oil is changed, reset the system so it can

calculate when the next oil change is required. If a

situation occurs where you change your oil prior to a

Change Oil Soon message being turned on, reset

the system.

After changing the engine oil, reset the system by

performing the following steps:

1. Display OIL LIFE RESET on the DIC.

2. Press and hold the ENTER button for at least

one second. An ACKNOWLEDGED display

message will appear for three seconds or until the

next button is pressed. This will tell you the

system has been reset.

3. Turn the key to OFF.

If the Change Oil Soon message comes back on when

you start your vehicle, the engine oil life system has

not reset. Repeat the procedure.

What to Do with Used Oil

Used engine oil contains certain elements that may be

unhealthy for your skin and could even cause cancer.

Do not let used oil stay on your skin for very long. Clean

your skin and nails with soap and water, or a good

hand cleaner. Wash or properly dispose of clothing or

rags containing used engine oil. See the manufacturer’s

warnings about the use and disposal of oil products.

Used oil can be a threat to the environment. If you

change your own oil, be sure to drain all the oil from the

ﬁlter before disposal. Never dispose of oil by putting it

in the trash, pouring it on the ground, into sewers, or into

streams or bodies of water. Instead, recycle it by

taking it to a place that collects used oil. If you have a

problem properly disposing of your used oil, ask

your dealer, a service station or a local recycling center

for help.
