Oil Change Indicator System — Cummins®
Diesel

Your vehicle is equipped with an engine oil change

indicator system. This system will alert you when it is

time to change your engine oil by displaying the words

“Oil Change Due” on your Electronic Vehicle Informa-

tion Center (EVIC) or Driver Information Display (DID).

The oil change reminder will remind the owner to change

the engine oil every 15,000 miles or 500 hours, whichever

comes first, except for the Chassis Cab models that are

using B20 biodiesel, which are 12,500 miles or 400 hours,

whichever comes first. Failure to change the engine oil

per the maintenance schedule can result in internal

engine damage.

Your authorized dealer will reset the oil change indicator

message after completing the scheduled oil change. If a

scheduled oil change is performed by someone other

than your authorized dealer, the message can be reset by

referring to the steps described under “Electronic Vehicle

Information Center (EVIC)” or “Driver Information Dis-

play (DID)” in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel”

for further information.
Replace the engine oil and oil filter every 15,000 miles
(24 000 km) or six months, or sooner if prompted by the
oil change indicator system. Under no circumstances
should oil change intervals exceed 15,000 miles
(24 000 km) or six months, whichever comes first.
