Oil life & reset procedures

Before you start

  • Reset the system whenever the engine oil is changed so that the system can calculate the next engine oil change.

  1. Turn the ignition to ON/RUN with the engine off.
  2. Press the DIC menu button on the turn signal lever to enter the Vehicle Information Menu. Use the thumbwheel to scroll through the menu items until you reach REMAINING OIL LIFE.
  3. Press the SET/CLR button to reset the oil life at 100%.
