Engine
Oil
Scheduled Maintenance
Your vehicle has a computer system that lets you know
when to change the engine oil and filter. This is
based on engine revolutions and engine temperature,
and not on mileage. Based on driving conditions, the
mileage at which an oil change will be indicated can vary
considerably. For the oil life system to work properly,
you must reset the system every time the oil is changed.
When the system has calculated that oil life has been
diminished, it will indicate that an
oil
change is
necessary. A CHANGE ENGINE
OIL
message will
come on. Change your
oil
as soon as possible within
the next two times you stop for fuel. It is possible that,
if
you are driving under the best conditions, the oil life
system may not indicate that an oil change is necessary
for over a year. However, your engine oil and filter
must be changed at least once
a
year and at this time
the system must be reset. It is also important to
check your oil regularly and keep it at the proper level.
If
the system is ever reset accidentally, you must
change your oil at
3,000
miles
(5
000
km) since your
last oil change. Remember to reset the oil life system
whenever the oil is changed. See
Engine Oil on
page
5-13
for information on resetting the system.
