When the Change Engine Oil light appears,
certain services, checks, and inspections are
required. Required services are described in the
following for “Maintenance I” and “Maintenance II.”
Generally, it is recommended that your first
service be Maintenance I, your second service
be Maintenance II, and that you alternate
Maintenance I and Maintenance II thereafter.
However, in some cases, Maintenance II may
be required more often.
Maintenance I — Use Maintenance I if the
Change Engine Oil light comes on within 10
months since the vehicle was purchased or
Maintenance II was performed.
Maintenance II — Use Maintenance II if the
previous service performed was Maintenance I.
Always use Maintenance II whenever the light
comes on 10 months or more since the last service
or if the light has not come on at all for one year.
