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 MENU button
and thumbwheel, scroll until you
reach REMAINING OIL LIFE
on the DIC (oil can symbol
with % sign for Canada).
2. Press the SET button to reset
the oil life at 100%. When
prompted, use the thumbwheel
to highlight YES or NO. Press
the SET/CLEAR button to
confirm.
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.
If the CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON
DIC message or Code 82 DIC
message comes back on when the
vehicle is started, the engine oil life
system has not reset. Repeat the
procedure.

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 service department and have
it repaired as soon as possible.

transmission fluid level dipstick.
There is a special procedure for
checking and changing the

procedure is difficult, this should
be done at the dealer service
department. Contact the dealer for
additional information.
Change the fluid and filter at the
intervals listed in Scheduled
Maintenance on page 11‑2, and
be sure to use the fluid listed in
