Resetting the Engine Oil Life Indicator
Turn the ignition switch ON (II).

Step 1: Press the SELECT button repeatedly until the oil life is displayed (if oil life is more than 15 %) or the maintenance message is displayed (if oil life is less than 15 %).

Step 2: Press the RESET button for about 10 seconds. You will see a service message to reset the maintenance item code(s) ''MAINT RESET.''

Step 3: Select the appropriate answer, ''MAINT RESET > N'' (NO) or ''MAINT RESET > Y'' (YES) by pressing the SELECT button repeatedly. ''>N'' or ''>Y'' is displayed on the outside temperature display.

Step 4:Select the ''MAINT RESET > Y'' (YES) and press the RESET button again to reset the engine oil life to ''100.''
