In Brief This may be an early indicator that the tire pressures are getting low and the tires need to be inflated to the proper pressure. The TPMS does not replace normal monthly tire maintenance. Maintain the correct tire pressures. See Tire Pressure Monitor System on page 10‑48. 1-23 Engine Oil Life System The engine oil life system calculates engine oil life based on vehicle use and displays the CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON message when it is time to change the engine oil and filter. The oil life system should be reset to 100% only following an oil change. Resetting the Oil Life System 1. Use the SELECT knob to select OIL LIFE on the DIC menu. 2. Press SELECT to start the OIL LIFE reset procedure. 3. The DIC menu will display "Are you sure that you want to reset?" Use SELECT to choose YES to reset oil life or NO to exit and return to the previous menu. 4. If YES is selected, the DIC menu will display RESET OIL LIFE for a short time and then 100% OIL LIFE will be displayed when OIL LIFE is successfully reset. See Engine Oil Life System on page 10‑12. Driving for Better Energy Efficiency Use the following tips to help maximize energy efficiency and range. Driving Style Efficiency Gauge (Instrument Cluster) The ball indicator should be kept green and in the center of the gauge. Inefficient acceleration is indicated when the ball turns yellow and travels above the center of the gauge. Aggressive braking is indicated when the ball turns yellow and travels below the center of the gauge. Tire Sealant and Compressor Kit This vehicle may have a tire sealant and compressor kit that can be used to seal small punctures in the tread area of the tire. Significant sidewall damage will require the tire to be replaced. See Tire Sealant and Compressor Kit on page 10‑61 for complete operating information.
