Change Engine Oil
•Your vehicle is equipped with an engine oil change indicator system.The “Change En-
gine Oil” message will flash in the EVIC display for approximately 10 seconds after a
single chime has sounded to indicate the next scheduled oil change interval.The engine
oil change indicator system is duty cycle based, which means the engine oil change in-
terval may fluctuate, dependent upon your personal driving style.
•Unless reset, this message will continue to display each time you turn the ignition
switch to the ON/RUN position.To turn off the message temporarily, press and re-
lease theMENUbutton.To reset the oil change indicator system (after performing the
scheduled maintenance), refer to the following procedure:
1.Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.(do not start the engine).
2.Fully depress the accelerator pedal slowly, three times within 10 seconds.
3.Turn the ignition switch to the OFF/LOCK position.
NOTE:
If the indicator message illuminates when you start the vehicle, the oil change indicator
system did not reset.If necessary, repeat this procedure.
IF YOUR ENGINE OVERHEATS
In any of the following situations, you can reduce the potential for overheating by taking
the appropriate action:
•On the highways — slow down.
•In city traffic — while stopped, shift transmission into NEUTRAL, but do not increase
engine idle speed.
NOTE:
There are steps that you can take to slow down an overheat condition:
•If your air conditioner (A/C) is on, turn it off.The A/C system adds heat to the engine
cooling system and turning the A/C off can help remove this heat.
•You can also turn the Temperature control to maximum heat, the Mode control to
floor and the Fan control to high.This allows the heater core to act as a supplement
to the radiator and aids in removing heat from the engine cooling system.
•If the temperature reading does not return to normal, turn the engine off immediately.
•We recommend that you do not operate the vehicle or engine damage will occur.
Have the vehicle serviced immediately.
