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 ENGINE OIL message
being turned on, reset the system.
If your vehicle does not have the optional Driver
Information Center (DIC), do the following:
1. Turn the ignition to ON, with the engine off.
2. Fully press and release the accelerator pedal
slowly three times within five seconds.
3. Turn the key to OFF.
If the CHANGE ENGINE OIL message comes
back on when you start your vehicle, the engine
oil life system has not reset. Repeat the
procedure.
If your vehicle has the optional DIC, do the
following:
1. Turn the ignition to ON, with the engine off.
2. Press the MODE button until the DIC
reads OIL LIFE LEFT/HOLD SET TO RESET.
3. Press and hold the SET button until 100% is
displayed.
You will hear three chimes and the CHANGE
ENGINE OIL message will go off.
4. Turn the key to OFF.
If the CHANGE ENGINE OIL 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.
