Service and Maintenance
. . . 402
The oil and oil filter change
intervals recommended in the
Maintenance Schedule for your
engine are based on the use of
recommended quality oils and
high quality filters. Using oil
other than those recommended,
or changing the oil and filter
at longer intervals than
recommended could reduce
engine life.
When the remaining oil life is low,
the CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON
message will appear.
See "Driver Information Center
Messages" in Section 1 for more
information.
After the oil change message
comes on, change the engine oil
as soon as possible within the next
1000 km (600 miles).
Even if the oil life system does not
indicate that an oil change is
necessary, the engine oil and filter
must be changed at least once a
year.
After you change the oil, the oil life
monitor will need to be reset. See
your dealer for service.
Engine damage resulting from
improper maintenance is not
covered by the New Vehicle
Warranty.
Engine Coolant
CAUTION
If your engine overheats, see
"Engine Overheating" in
Section 5. Continued operation
of the overheated engine, even
for a short time, may result in
a fire and the possibility of
personal injury and/or severe
vehicle damage.
CAUTION
The cooling system in your
vehicle is pressurized. Only add
coolant when the cooling
system or coolant is cold.
