How to Reset the Engine Oil Life
System
The Engine Oil Life System calculates when to
change the engine oil and lter based on vehicle
use. Whenever the oil is changed, reset the system
so it can calculate when the next oil change is
required. If a situation occurs where you change the
oil prior to a CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON
message being turned on, reset the system.
If your vehicle does not have Driver Information
Center (DIC) buttons:
1. Turn the ignition to ON, with the engine off.
The vehicle must be in PARK (P) to access
this display. Press the trip odometer reset
stem until OIL LIFE REMAINING displays.
2. Press and hold the trip odometer reset stem
until OIL LIFE REMAINING shows 100%. You
will hear three chimes and the CHANGE
ENGINE OIL SOON message will go off.
3. Turn the key to OFF.
If the CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON message
comes back on when you start your vehicle,
the engine oil life system has not reset.
Repeat the procedure.If your vehicle has Driver Information Center (DIC)
buttons:
1. Turn the ignition to ON, with the engine off.
2. Press the vehicle information button until OIL
LIFE REMAINING displays.
3. Press and hold the set/reset button until 100%
is displayed. You will hear three chimes and
the CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON message

If your vehicle has the DIC feature, a message
to check the pressure in a specic tire also
appears on the DIC display. The low tire pressure
warning symbol on the instrument panel cluster
and the CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning
message on the DIC display appears at each
ignition cycle until the tires are inated to
the correct ination pressure. For additional
information and details about the DIC operation
and displays seeDIC Operation and Displays
(With DIC Buttons) on page 229orDIC Operation
and Displays (Without DIC Buttons) on page 235
andDIC Warnings and Messages on page 239.
You may notice, during cooler weather conditions,
the tire pressure monitor light, located on the
instrument panel cluster, and the CHECK TIRE
PRESSURE message appears when the vehicle is
rst started and then turn off as you start to
drive the vehicle. This could be an early indicator
that the tire pressures are getting low and
need to be inated to the proper pressure.
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should
be checked monthly when cold and inated to
the ination pressure recommended by the vehicle
manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire
ination pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires ofa different size than the size indicated on the
vehicle placard or tire ination pressure label, you
should determine the proper tire ination
pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety
feature, your vehicle
has been equipped with
a tire pressure
monitoring system
(TPMS) that illuminates
a low tire pressure
telltale when one
or more of your tires is
signicantly
under-inated.
Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale
illuminates, you should stop and check your tires
as soon as possible, and inate them to the
proper pressure. Driving on a signicantly
under-inated tire causes the tire to overheat and
can lead to tire failure. Under-ination also
reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may
affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.

Resetting the TPMS Identication
Codes
Each TPMS sensor has a unique identication
code. Any time you rotate your vehicle’s tires or
replace one or more of the TPMS sensors,
the identication codes need to be matched to the
new tire/wheel position. The sensors are
matched to the tire/wheel positions in the following
order: driver side front tire, passenger side front
tire, passenger side rear tire, and driver side
rear tire using a TPMS diagnostic tool. See your
dealer/retailer for service.
The TPMS sensors can also be matched to each
tire/wheel position by increasing or decreasing
the tire’s air pressure. If increasing the tire’s
air pressure, do not exceed the maximum ination
pressure indicated on the tire’s sidewall. To
decrease air-pressure out of a tire you can use
the pointed end of the valve cap, a pencil-style air
pressure gage, or a key.
You have two minutes to match the rst tire/wheel
position, and ve minutes overall to match all
four tire/wheel positions. If it takes longer than
two minutes to match the rst tire and wheel, ormore than ve minutes to match all four tire and
wheel positions, the matching process stops
and you will need to start over.
The TPMS sensor matching process is outlined
below:
1. Set the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition switch to ON with the
engine off.
3. Using the DIC, press the vehicle information
button until the PRESS
VTO RELEARN
TIRE POSITIONS message displays. If your
vehicle does not have the DIC buttons,
press the trip odometer reset stem located on
the instrument panel cluster until the
RELEARN TIRE POSITIONS message
displays.
4. If your vehicle has the DIC buttons, press the
set/reset button. The horn sounds twice to
indicate the TPMS receiver is ready, and the
TIRE LEARNING ACTIVE message
displays. If your vehicle does not have the
DIC buttons, press and hold the trip odometer
reset stem until the horn chirps twice and
the TIRE LEARNING ACTIVE message
is displayed.

Many cleaners contain solvents that may become
concentrated in your vehicle’s breathing space.
Before using cleaners, read and adhere to
all safety instructions on the label. While cleaning
your vehicle’s interior, maintain adequate
ventilation by opening your vehicle’s doors and
windows.
Dust may be removed from small buttons and
knobs using a small brush with soft bristles.
Your dealer/retailer has a product for cleaning
your vehicle’s glass. Should it become necessary,
you can also obtain a product from your
dealer/retailer to remove odors from your vehicle’s
upholstery.
Do not clean your vehicle using the following
cleaners or techniques:
Never use a knife or any other sharp object to
remove a soil from any interior surface.
Never use a stiff brush. It can cause damage
to your vehicle’s interior surfaces.
Never apply heavy pressure or rub
aggressively with a cleaning cloth. Use of
heavy pressure can damage your interior and
does not improve the effectiveness of soil
removal.
Use only mild, neutral-pH soaps. Avoid laundry
detergents or dishwashing soaps with
degreasers. Using too much soap will leave a
residue that leaves streaks and attracts dirt.
For liquid cleaners, about 20 drops per gallon
(3.78 L) of water is a good guide.
Do not heavily saturate your upholstery while
cleaning.
Damage to your vehicle’s interior may result
from the use of many organic solvents such as
naptha, alcohol, etc.
Fabric/Carpet
Use a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush attachment
frequently to remove dust and loose dirt. A canister
vacuum with a beater bar in the nozzle may only be
used on oor carpet and carpeted oor mats. For
soils, always try to remove them rst with plain
water or club soda. Before cleaning, gently remove
as much of the soil as possible using one of the
following techniques:
For liquids: gently blot the remaining soil with a
paper towel. Allow the soil to absorb into the
paper towel until no more can be removed.
For solid dry soils: remove as much as possible
and then vacuum.
