BUCKLE SEATBELT
If your vehicle has the passenger sensing system, this
message reminds you to buckle the driver’s seat
belt. See Passenger Sensing System on page 1-82.
This message will display and a chime will sound when
the ignition is on, the driver’s seat belt is unbuckled,
and the vehicle is in motion. You should buckle
your seat belt.
If the driver remains unbuckled when the ignition is on
and the vehicle is in motion, the reminder will be
repeated. If the driver’s seat belt is already buckled, this
message and chime will not come on.
This message is an additional reminder to the Safety
Belt Reminder Light in the instrument panel cluster. See
Safety Belt Reminder Light on page 3-34.
Pressing any of the four DIC buttons or the trip odometer
reset stem will acknowledge the message and clear it
from the DIC display.
CHANGE ENGINE OIL
This message is displayed when the engine oil needs to
be changed and service is required for your vehicle.

Oil Life System on page 5-14 for information on how
to reset the message. This message will clear itself after
10 seconds until the next ignition cycle.
