Resetting the Maintenance Information Display

NOTE:
  • The vehicle must be stopped to reset the display
  • If a required service is done and the display is not reset, or if the maintenance display is reset without doing the service, the system will not show the proper maintenance timing This can lead to serious mechanical problems because there will be no accurate record of when the required maintenance is needed
  • The engine oil life and maintenance item(s) can be independently reset with the HDS
  1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II), or press the engine start/stop button to select the ON mode
  2. If system message(s) are displayed, press the INFO button to cancel the display
  3. Push and release the SEL/RESET button repeatedly until the engine oil life indicator is displayed
  4. Press and hold the SEL/RESET button for about 10 seconds, the "OIL LIFE RESET" mode display appears
    NOTE:
    • If you are resetting the display when the engine oil life is more than 15 %, make sure any maintenance item(s) requiring service are done before resetting the display
    • To cancel the "OIL LIFE RESET" mode, press the INFO button repeatedly until the "CANCEL" indicator is displayed, then press the SEL/RESET button
