AUTO LIGHTS OFF: This message is displayed if the automatic headlamp system is disabled with the headlamp switch. AUTO LIGHTS ON: This message is displayed if the automatic headlamp system is enabled with the headlamp switch. BRAKE FLUID: This message will display if the ignition is in ON to inform the driver that the brake fluid level is low. Have the brake system serviced by a technician as soon as possible. CHANGE OIL SOON: This message is displayed when the life of the engine oil has expired and it should be changed within 200 miles. When you acknowledge the Change Engine Oil message by clearing it from the display, you still must reset the engine oil life monitor separately. See Engine Oil on page 5-17 and Scheduled Maintenance on page 6-4 for more information. CHECK GAS CAP: This message will appear if the gas cap has not been fully tightened. You should recheck your gas cap to ensure that it's on properly. A few driving trips with the cap properly installed should turn the display off. DIC Warnings and Messages These messages will appear if there is a problem sensed in one of your vehicle's systems. Any message will clear when the vehicle's condition is no longer present. The warning message will come back on the next time the vehicle is turned off and back on if the condition is still present. With most messages, a warning chime will sound when the message is displayed. Your vehicle may have other warning messages. 3-50
