Vehicle Information Menu Items
T
(Vehicle Information): Press this button to
scroll through the following menu items:
Oil Life
Press the vehicle information button until OIL LIFE
REMAINING displays. This display shows an
estimate of the oil’s remaining useful life. If you
see 99% OIL LIFE REMAINING on the display,
that means 99% of the current oil life remains.
The engine oil life system will alert you to change
the oil on a schedule consistent with your driving
conditions.
When the remaining oil life is low, the CHANGE
ENGINE OIL SOON message will appear on the
display. See “CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON” under
DIC Warnings and Messages on page 221. You
should change the oil as soon as possible. See
Engine Oil on page 337. In addition to the engine
oil life system monitoring the oil life, additional
maintenance is recommended in the Maintenance
Schedule in this manual. See Scheduled
Maintenance on page 442 for more information.
Remember, you must reset the OIL LIFE yourself
after each oil change. It will not reset itself. Also, be
careful not to reset the OIL LIFE 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 on page 340.
Park Assist
If your vehicle has the Ultrasonic Rear Parking
Assist (URPA) system, this display allows the
system to be turned on or off. Once in this display,
press the set/reset button to select between ON or
OFF. If you choose ON, the system will be turned
on. If you choose OFF, the system will be turned
off. The URPA system automatically turns back
on after each vehicle start. When the URPA system
is turned off and the vehicle is shifted out of
PARK (P), the DIC will display the PARK ASSIST
OFF message as a reminder that the system has
been turned off. See DIC Warnings and Messages
on page 221 and Ultrasonic Rear Parking Assist
(URPA) on page 178 for more information.
