How to Reset the Engine Oil Life

so that the system can calculate the next engine oil
change. To reset the system:
1. Turn the ignition to ON/RUN, with the engine off.
2. Press the information and reset buttons on the
Driver Information Center (DIC) at the same time to
enter the personalization menu. See DIC Vehicle
Personalization on page 4‑46.
3. Press the information button to scroll through the
available personalization menu modes until the
DIC display shows OIL‐LIFE RESET.
4. Press and hold the reset button until the DIC
display shows ACKNOWLEDGED. This will tell
you the system has been reset.
5. Turn the key to LOCK/OFF.
For vehicles with the 2.2L (VIN Code V) or 2.4L
(VIN Code B) engines, you can also reset the system
as follows:
1. Turn the ignition key to ON/RUN with the
engine off.
2. Fully press and release the accelerator pedal
slowly three times within five seconds.
3. Turn the key to LOCK/OFF, then start the engine.
If the CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON message comes
back on when the vehicle is started, the engine oil life
system has not been reset. Repeat the procedure.
