HONDA 2010 Element - Manual (Page 251)

The maintenance item code or codes

you turn the ignition switch to the
ON (II) position, then it goes out if
you switch the information display.
When you see this message, have
the indicated maintenance performed
by your dealer as soon as possible.
When the remaining engine oil life is
0 percent, the engine oil life indicator
will blink. The display comes on
every time you turn the ignition
switch to the ON (II) position. The
maintenance minder indicator (

also comes on and remains on in the
instrument panel. When you see this
message, immediately have the
indicated maintenance done by your
dealer.

maintenance, negative distance
traveled is displayed and begins to
blink after the vehicle has been
driven 10 miles (10 km) or more.
