How to Reset the Engine Oil
Life System
The Engine Oil Life System
calculates when to change the
engine oil and filter based on vehicle
use. Whenever the oil is changed,
reset the system so it can calculate
when the next oil change is required.
If a situation occurs where the oil is
changed prior to the letters InSP
appearing in the odometer display,
reset the system.
After changing the engine oil, reset
the system:
1. Turn the ignition key to
LOCK/OFF.
2. Press the instrument panel
cluster stem until the odometer is
displayed, then release the stem.
3. Re-press and hold the cluster
stem until the letters InSP are
displayed.
4. Press and hold the brake pedal
down, hold the cluster stem
down, and turn the ignition key
to ON/RUN.
5. The letters InSP in the instrument
panel cluster display will flash.
6. Keep the cluster stem down for
at least 10 seconds and release
the stem and the brake pedal
when the message “new
remaining milage” is displayed.
What to Do with Used Oil
Used engine oil contains certain
elements that can be unhealthy for
your skin and could even cause
cancer. Do not let used oil stay on
your skin for very long. Clean your
skin and nails with soap and water,
or a good hand cleaner. Wash or
properly dispose of clothing or rags
containing used engine oil. See the
manufacturer’s warnings about the
use and disposal of oil products.
Used oil can be a threat to the
environment. If you change your own
oil, be sure to drain all the oil from the
filter before disposal. Never dispose
of oil by putting it in the trash, pouring
it on the ground, into sewers, or into
streams or bodies of water. Recycle
it by taking it to a place that collects
used oil.
