and the amount of fuel remaining in
the fuel tank.
Also displays the current fuel
economy in liters per
100 kilometers (L/100 km) or miles
per gallon (mpg). This number
reflects only the approximate fuel
economy that the vehicle has right
now and changes frequently as
driving conditions change.
Average Speed : Displays the
average speed of the vehicle in
kilometers per hour (km/h) or miles
per hour (mph). This average is
calculated based on the various
vehicle speeds recorded since the
last reset of this value. The average
speed can be reset by pressing and
holding
V while this display is
active.
Timer : To start the timer, press
Vwhile this display is active. The
display will show the amount of time

last reset. To stop the timer, press
Vbriefly while this display is active and the timer is running. To reset
the timer to zero, press and hold
Vwhile this display is active.
Oil Life : Displays an estimate of
the oil's remaining useful life.
If REMAINING OIL LIFE 99% is
displayed, that means 99% of the
current oil life remains.
When the remaining oil life is low,
the CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON
message will appear on the display.
The oil should be changed as soon
as possible. See Engine Oil 0 237 .
In addition to the engine oil life
system monitoring the oil life,
additional maintenance is
recommended. See Maintenance
Schedule 0 311 .
The Oil Life display must be reset
after each oil change. It will not

Coolant Temperature : Displays
the coolant temperature in degrees
Celsius (°C) or degrees
Fahrenheit (°F).
Tire Pressure : Displays the
approximate pressures of all four
tires. Tire pressure is displayed in
kilopascal (kPa) or pounds per
square inch (psi). If the pressure is
low, the value for that tire is shown
in amber. See Tire Pressure Monitor
System 0 274 and

Battery Voltage : Displays the
current battery voltage. The battery
voltage can fluctuate while viewing
this information on the DIC. This is

for selecting one of the distance
options. Move the up/down arrow to
choose the selection, and
V to

best AFE, a several second press
and hold of
V will reset the best
value. The best value will show “ - - - ” until the selected distance has
been traveled. The display provides
feedback on how current driving
behavior in the bar graph affects the
running average in the left display
and how well recent driving
compares to the best that has been
achieved.
Speed Limit : Displays sign
information, which comes from a
roadway database in the onboard
navigation.

240 Vehicle Care the best conditions, the oil life
system may indicate that an oil
change is not necessary for up to a
year. The engine oil and filter must
be changed at least once a year
and at this time the system must be
reset. Your dealer has trained
service people who will perform this
work and reset the system. It is also
important to check the oil regularly
over the course of an oil drain
interval and keep it at the proper
level.
If the system is ever reset
accidentally, the oil must be
changed at 5 000 km (3,000 mi)
since the last oil change.
Remember to reset the oil life
system whenever the oil is changed.
How to Reset the Engine Oil
Life System
Reset the system whenever the
engine oil is changed so that the
system can calculate the next
engine oil change. To reset the
system: 1. Using the DIC controls on the
right side of the steering wheel,
display REMAINING OIL LIFE
on the DIC. See Driver
Information Center (DIC) (Base
Level) 0 123 or
Driver Information Center (DIC)
(Uplevel) 0 126 . When
remaining oil life is low, the
CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON
message will appear on the
display.
2. Press
V on the DIC controls
and hold down for a few
seconds to clear the CHANGE
ENGINE OIL SOON message
and reset the oil life at 100%.
Be careful not to reset the oil
life display accidentally at any
time other than after the oil is
changed. It cannot be reset
accurately until the next oil
change.
The system is reset when the
CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON
message is off. If the CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON
message comes back on when the
vehicle is started, the engine oil life
system has not been reset. Repeat
the procedure.
Automatic Transmission
Fluid It is not necessary to check the
transmission fluid level.
A transmission fluid leak is the only
reason for fluid loss. If a leak
occurs, take the vehicle to your
dealer and have it repaired as soon
as possible.
Change the fluid at the intervals
listed in Maintenance Schedule
0 311 , and be sure to use the
transmission fluid listed in
Recommended Fluids and
Lubricants 0 320 .
Caution
Use of the incorrect automatic
transmission fluid may damage
the vehicle, and the damage may

Tire Inspection We recommend that the tires,
including the spare tire, if the
vehicle has one, be inspected
for signs of wear or damage at
least once a month.
Replace the tire if: .
The indicators at three or
more places around the tire
can be seen..
There is cord or fabric
showing through the tire's
rubber..
The tread or sidewall is
cracked, cut, or snagged
deep enough to show cord or
fabric..
The tire has a bump, bulge,
or split.
.
The tire has a puncture, cut,
or other damage that cannot
be repaired well because of
the size or location of the
damage. Tire Rotation Tires should be rotated every
12 000 km (7,500 mi). See
Maintenance Schedule 0 311 .
Tires are rotated to achieve a
more uniform wear for all tires.
The first rotation is the most
important.
Anytime unusual wear is
noticed, rotate the tires as soon
as possible, check for proper tire
inflation pressure, and check for
damaged tires or wheels. If the
unusual wear continues after the
rotation, check the wheel
alignment. See When It Is Time
for New Tires 0 280 and
Wheel Replacement 0 284 . Use this rotation pattern when
rotating the tires.
Do not include the compact
spare tire in the tire rotation.
Adjust the front and rear tires to
the recommended inflation
pressure on the Tire and
Loading Information label after
the tires have been rotated. See
Tire Pressure 0 272 and
Vehicle Load Limits 0 169 .
Reset the Tire Pressure Monitor
System. See Tire Pressure
Monitor Operation 0 275 .

indicate the need for vehicle service
for up to a year. The engine oil and filter must be changed at least once
a year and the oil life system must
be reset. Your trained dealer
technician can perform this work.
If the engine oil life system is reset
accidentally, service the vehicle
within 5 000 km/3,000 mi since the
last service. Reset the oil life
system when the oil is changed.
