Remaining Oil Life
This display shows an estimate
of the oil's remaining useful life.
If REMAINING OIL LIFE 99% is
displayed, that means 99% of the
current oil life remains.
When the remaining oil life is low,
the CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON
message will appear on the display.
See Engine Oil Messages on
page 533. The oil should be
changed as soon as possible.
See Engine Oil on page 1010.
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 112 for more information.
Remember, the Oil Life display
must be reset after each oil change.
It will not reset itself. Also, be
careful not to reset the Oil Life
display 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
press the SET button while the Oil
Life display is active. See Engine
Oil Life System on page 1013.
Coolant Temperature
This display shows the temperature
of the engine cooling system fluid
in either degrees Celsius (°C) or

Battery Voltage

vehicles, shows the current battery
voltage. If the voltage is in the
normal range, the value will display.

The vehicle's charging system
regulates voltage based on the
state of the battery. The battery
voltage can fluctuate while viewing

normal. See Charging System Light
on page 516 for more information.
If there is a problem with the battery
charging system, the DIC will
display a message. See Battery
Voltage and Charging Messages on
