Speed : Shows the vehicle speed in either
kilometers per hour (km/h) or miles per
hour (mph).
Trip 1 or Trip 2 and Average Fuel
Economy : The Trip display shows the
current distance traveled, in either
kilometers (km) or miles (mi), since the trip
odometer was last reset. The trip odometer
can be reset by pressing
Vand selecting
yes or no while this display is active.
Shows the approximate average liters per
100 kilometers (L/100 km) or miles per
gallon (mpg). This number is calculated
based on the number of L/100 km (mpg)
recorded since the last time this menu item
was reset. This number reflects only the
approximate average fuel economy that the
vehicle has right now, and will change as
driving conditions change. The Average Fuel
Economy can be reset by pressing
Vand
selecting yes or no while this display is
active.
Fuel Range : Shows the approximate
distance the vehicle can be driven without
refueling. LOW will be displayed when the vehicle is low on fuel. The fuel range
estimate is based on an average of the
vehicle's fuel economy over recent driving
history and the amount of fuel remaining in
the fuel tank.
Fuel Information :
Shows the fuel range and
instantaneous fuel economy.
Oil Life : Shows 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
0 258. In addition to the engine oil life
system monitoring the oil life, additional
maintenance is recommended. See the
Maintenance Schedule booklet.
The Oil Life display must be reset after each
oil change. It will not reset itself. Do not
reset the Oil Life display accidentally at any
time other than when the oil has just been
changed. It cannot be reset accurately until
the next oil change. To reset the engine oil
life system, see Engine Oil Life System
0 260. Tire Pressure :
Shows the approximate
pressures of all four tires. Tire pressure is
displayed in either kilopascal (kPa) or in
pounds per square inch (psi). If the
pressure is low, the value for that tire is
shown in amber. See Tire Pressure Monitor
System 0286 and
Tire Pressure Monitor Operation 0287.
Air Filter Life : Shows an estimate of the
engine air filter’s remaining useful life and
the state of the system. Engine Air Filter Life
95% means 95% of the current air filter life
remains. Messages will display based on the
engine air filter life and the state of the
system. When the REPLACE AT NEXT OIL
CHANGE message displays, the engine air
filter should be replaced at the time of the
next oil change. When the REPLACE SOON
message displays, the engine air filter
should be replaced at the earliest
convenience.
The Air Filter Life display must be reset after
the engine air filter replacement. To reset,
see Engine Air Filter Life System 0261.
Fuel Economy : Displays average fuel
economy, the best fuel economy over the
selected distance, and a bar graph showing
instantaneous fuel economy.

Engine Oil Life System
When to Change Engine Oil
This vehicle has a computer system that
indicates when to change the engine oil and
filter. This is based on a combination of
factors which include engine revolutions,
engine temperature, and miles driven. Based
on driving conditions, the mileage at which
an oil change is indicated can vary
considerably. For the oil life system to work
properly, the system must be reset every
time the oil is changed.
When the system has calculated that oil life
has been diminished, it indicates that an oil
change is necessary. A CHANGE ENGINE OIL
SOON message comes on. Change the oil as
soon as possible within the next 1 000 km
(600 mi). It is possible that, if driving under
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 willperform 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) 0103. When
remaining oil life is low, the CHANGE
ENGINE OIL SOON message will appear
on the display.
2. Press the thumbwheel while the Oil Life display is active. When the confirmation
message displays, select YES. The oil life
will change to 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
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.
Caution
Use of the incorrect automatic
transmission fluid may damage the
vehicle, and the damage may not be
covered by the vehicle warranty. Always
use the correct automatic transmission
fluid. See Recommended Fluids and
Lubricants 0322.
See your dealer to have the fluid and filter
changed at the intervals.
