INSTRUMENT PANEL ters (km) the vehicle can be driven without refueling. The fuel range estimate is based on an average of the vehicle's fuel economy over recent driving history and the amount of fuel remaining in the fuel tank. This estimate will change if driving conditions change. For example, if driving in traffic and making frequent stops, this display may read one number, but if the vehicle is driven on a freeway, the number may change even though the same amount of fuel is in the fuel tank. This is because different driving conditions produce different fuel economies. Generally, freeway driving produces better fuel economy than city driving. If your vehicle is low on fuel, the FUEL LEVEL LOW message will be displayed. Refer to "FUEL LEVEL LOW" under "DIC Warnings and Messages" in this section for more information. Blank Display This display shows no information. Vehicle Information Menu Items Vehicle Information (2): Press this button to scroll through the following displays: OIL LIFE Press the vehicle information button until OIL LIFE REMAINING displays. This display shows an estimate of the oil's remaining useful life. If you see 99% OIL LIFE REMAINING on the display, that means 99% of the current oil life remains. The engine oil life system will alert you to change the oil on a schedule consistent with your driving conditions. When the remaining oil life is low, the CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON message will appear on the display along with the Change Engine Oil Light on the instrument panel cluster. Refer to "CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON" under "DIC Warnings and Messages" in this section and "Change Engine Oil Light" in "Warning Lights, Gages, and Indicators" in this section. You should change the oil as soon as possible. Refer to "Engine Oil" in "Checking Things Under the Hood" in the "Service and Appearance Care" section. In addition to the engine oil life system monitoring the oil life, additional maintenance is recommended in the Maintenance Schedule in this manual. Refer to "Scheduled Maintenance" in "Maintenance Schedule" in the "Maintenance Schedule" section for more information. Remember, you must reset the OIL LIFE yourself after each oil change. It will not reset itself. Also, be careful not to reset the OIL LIFE accidentally at any time other than when the oil has just been changed. It cannot be reset accurately until the next oil change. To reset the engine oil life system, refer to "Engine Oil Life System" in "Checking Things Under the Hood" in the "Service and Appearance Care" section.
