CHAngE OIL Message
Your vehicle is equipped with an engine oil change
indicator system. The “CHANgE OIL” message will flash
in the instrument cluster odometer for approximately
12 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 interval 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
release the Trip Odometer button on the instrument
cluster. 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/RUN position (donot 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.
25. Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
The Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) is a part of
an Onboard Diagnostic System called OBD II that
monitors engine and automatic transmission con-
trol systems. The light will illuminate when the ignition
is in the ON position before engine start. If the bulb does
not come on when turning the key from OFF to ON/
RUN, have the condition checked promptly.

Control Buttons
The Compass/Temperature control buttons are located
on the left spoke of the steering wheel.
Press and release the STEP button on the steering wheel
to access the options in the Compass display.NOTE:
The system will display the last known outside
temperature when starting the vehicle and may need to
be driven several minutes before the updated tempera-
ture is displayed. Engine temperature can also affect the
displayed temperature; therefore, temperature readings
are not updated when the vehicle is not moving.
The following displays can be reset or changed:
• Compass/Temperature
• AVG ECO (changes to present fuel economy)
• ET (will reset display)
• DTE (distance to empty)
These messages can be cycled through by pressing the
STEP button on the steering wheel. To reset the AVG ECO
or ET, press and hold the STEP button for approximately
three seconds.

Compass/Temperature Display
NOTE:If the vehicle is equipped with a Chrysler
Uconnect® gps (Navigation Radio), the NAV system will
provide the compass direction, and the variance and
calibration menus will be unavailable. The compass will
perform accurately, based on GPS signals instead of the
Earth’s magnetic field.
Compass Variance
Compass Variance is the difference between Magnetic
North and Geographic North. To compensate for the
differences, the variance should be set for the zone where
the vehicle is driven, per the zone map. Once properly set,
the compass will automatically compensate for the differ-
ences and provide the most accurate compass heading.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 321

To Set The Variance
Start the engine and leave the transmission gear selector
lever in the PARK position. Press and hold the RESET
button on the steering wheel (for approximately ten sec-
onds) until the current variance zone number is dis-
played. To change the zone, press and release the STEP
button to increase the variance one step. Repeat as
necessary until the desired variance is achieved.
NOTE:The factory default zone is 8. During program-
ming, the zone value will wrap around from zone 15 to
zone 1.
Manual Compass Calibration
If the compass appears erratic, inaccurate or abnormal,
you may wish to calibrate the compass. Prior to calibrat-
ing the compass, make sure the proper zone is selected.
1. Start the engine and leave the transmission in the PARK position. 2. Press and hold the RESET button (for approximately
10 seconds) until the current variance zone number is
displayed.
3. Release the RESET button, then press and hold again for approximately 10 seconds, until the direction is
displayed, with the CAL indicator on continuously in
the display.
4. To complete the compass calibration, drive the vehicle in one or more complete 360–degree circles, under
5 mph (8 km/h) in an area free from power lines and
large metallic objects, until the CAL indicator turns
off. The compass will now function normally.

NOTE:
•A good calibration requires a level surface and an
environment free from large metallic objects such as
buildings, bridges, underground cables, railroad
tracks, etc.
• Magnetic materials should be kept away from the top
of the center of the instrument panel. This is where the
compass sensor is located.
Average Fuel Economy / Distance To Empty (DTE) /
Elapsed Time
• Average Fuel Economy
Shows the average fuel economy since the last reset.
When the fuel economy is reset, the digits will go blank
while the history information is erased. The averaging
will restart when enough new distance and fuel data is
accumulated. •
Distance To Empty (DTE)
Shows the estimated distance that can be traveled with
the fuel remaining in the tank. This estimated distance is
determined by a weighted average of the instantaneous
and average fuel economy, according to the current fuel
tank level. DTE cannot be reset.
• Elapsed Time
Shows the total elapsed time of travel since the last reset.
Elapsed time will increment when the ignition switch is
in the RUN or START positions. The elapsed timer
displays minutes:seconds. After 59minutes:59seconds, it
displays hours:minutes:seconds.
