Battery Voltage

This display, available on some
vehicles, shows the current battery

normal range, the value will display.
For example, the display may read
BATTERY VOLTAGE 15.0 VOLTS.
The vehicle's charging system
regulates voltage based on the
state of the battery. The battery
voltage can fluctuate while viewing
this information on the DIC. This is
normal. See Charging System Light
on page 5‑18
for more information.
If there is a problem with the battery
charging system, the DIC will
display a message. See Battery
Voltage and Charging Messages on
page 5‑32
.

Remaining Oil Life

This display shows an estimate
of the oil's remaining useful life.
If REMAINING OIL LIFE 99% is
displayed, that means 99% of the
current oil life remains.

When the remaining oil life is
low, the CHANGE ENGINE OIL
SOON message will appear on the
display. See Engine Oil Messages
on page 5‑35
. The oil should be
changed as soon as possible.
See Engine Oil on page 10‑8.
In addition to the engine oil life
system monitoring the oil life,
additional maintenance is
recommended in the Maintenance
Schedule in this manual.
See Maintenance Schedule on
page 11‑4
for more information.

Remember, the Oil Life display
must be reset after each oil change.
It will not reset itself. Also, be
careful not to reset the Oil Life
display 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,
press the SET/CLR button while
the Oil Life display is active.
