CHANGE
OIL
The CHANGE OIL light
comes on for a few seconds
when you turn the ignition
on. It will come on and stay
on when it’s time to change
your oil.
The monitor uses oil temperature and engine revolutions
to decide when the oil
is nearly worn out. The light is
only a reminder, though. Be sure
to reset the monitor when your oil
is changed,
even
if the CHANGE OIL light didn’t come on. If you
don’t reset the monitor, it won’t work correctly. Follow
these steps:
1. Turn the key to RUN, but don’t start the engine.
2. Press ENG MET on the trip monitor. Then, within
five seconds, press it again.
3. Within five seconds, press and hold GAUGES on the
trip monitor. The CHANGE OIL light should flash.
4. Hold the GAUGES button until the CHANGE OIL
light stops flashing and goes out. This should take
about
10 seconds.
When the light goes out, the monitor is reset. If
the monitor doesn’t reset, turn the ignition off, then
try again.

System Problems
If the light above an air control button flashes when you
turn on the ignition, your system may have an electrical
problem. The flashing will continue for one minute,
then stop.
The flashing light could also mean the refrigerant level
is too low in your system. The light will continue to
flash, even if refrigerant is added, until the system is
reset. Have your system checked and serviced if needed.
To reset your system:
1. Turn your ignition key to OFF or LOCK.
2. Remove the courtesy lamps and radio fuses from the
main fuse panel and wait one minute. See “Fuses and
Circuit Breakers” in the Index.
3. Put the fuses back in and start your vehicle.
The light shouldn’t come on and your system should be
working properly. If you still have
a problem, see
your dealer.
