a

message. Always keep
a written record
of
the mileage and date when you
changed your
oil.

Maintenance Schedule booklet.
If

see

it
means that
you
have less than
10
percent of the
oil
life left and you should consider
changing your engine oil.

oil
between

(5

(1

drive in a dusty
area, you should change your oil every

km)
or three months (whichever comes first)
unless the display indicates changing it sooner. The
system doesn’t check
