System check

Selecting this function from the
SETUP menu causes the message
center to cycle through each of the
systems being monitored. For each
of the monitored systems, the
message center will indicate either
an OK message or a warning message for three seconds.
Pressing the RESET control cycles the message center through each of
the systems being monitored.
The sequence of the system check report is as follows:
1. Oil life
2. Brake system
3. Liftgate and glass
4. DTE/Fuel level
Oil life
An oil change is required whenever indicated by the message center.
USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ENGINE OILS.
To reset the oil monitoring system to 100% after each oil change
[approximately 7,500 miles (12,000 km) or 6 months] perform the
following:
1. Press and release the SETUP
control to display "OIL LIFE =
XXX% HOLD RESET = NEW".
2. Press and hold the RESET
control for 2 seconds and release.
Oil life is set to 100% and "OIL LIFE
SET TO 100%" is displayed.
3. While "OIL LIFE SET TO 100%"
is displayed, if a lower oil life start
value is desired, press and release the RESET control to reduce the start
value. Each press of the RESET control reduces the value by 10 percent.
Note: Oil life start value of 100% equals 7,500 miles (12,000 km) or
6 months. For example, setting oil life start value to 60% sets the oil life
start value to 4,500 miles (7,200 km) and 108 days.
