Scroll through trip mileage/ averages etc until you get to the change oil message and then clear it the same way you clear your trip mileage by holding the button in until the message flashes & clears.

PROGRAMMING THE INTERVALS TO REQUIREMENTS

to alter the counters to your prefered settings (within reason)

3- The LCD display “OEL 1,S” where the “S” indicates SET

OEL 1,S – Distance counter for oil change (7500 standard)
OEL 2,S – Time counter for oil change (12 months)
IN 01,S – Time counter for yearly service interval (12 months)
IN 02,S – Distance counter for full service (15000 miles)
5- Using the minute SET button on the clock (lower one) you can display the current value
repeated pressing of the button will select a subsequent lower value and at the lowest level
will reset to the highest and start to decrease again (so don’t panic)
the steps work in miles (500 at a time) and time steps in bi-monthly (1=2months) i.e.1-2-3-4-5-6
6- Once you have set the counter to the value you require – turn off the ignition
