Low Oil Light
This warning light should
come on briefly while you
are starting your engine.
If the light doesn’t come on,
have it repaired.
If the light stays on after starting your engine, your
engine oil level may be too low. You may need to add
oil. See “Engine Oil” in the Index.
NOTICE:
The oil level monitoring system only checks
the oil level when you are starting your engine.
It does not keep monitoring the level once the
engine is running. Also, the oil level check only
works when the engine has been turned off long
enough for the oil to drain back into the oil pan.
Oil Change Light
This OIL CHANGE light
should come on briefly as
a bulb check when you
start the engine. If the OIL
CHANGE light doesn’t
come on, have it serviced.
If the OIL CHANGE light comes on and stays
on for 60 seconds after you start the engine,
have the oil changed.
For additional information, see “Engine Oil, When to
Change” in the Index. After changing the engine oil,
the system must be reset. See “How to Reset the Oil
Change Light” in the Index.
