Oil Maintenance Mode (If Equipped)
The oil maintenance mode is
equipped on Energi models only. The

engine oil quality in good condition
when you drive the vehicle with
limited engine use. If the vehicle is in
oil maintenance mode when you start
the vehicle, a message will appear in
the instrument cluster. While the
vehicle is in oil maintenance mode,
the vehicle will run the engine as
necessary.
If you select the EV Now mode while
the vehicle is in the oil maintenance
mode, the oil maintenance mode will
be suspended for as long as you
continue driving the vehicle. The oil
maintenance mode will resume the
next time you start the vehicle.
Changing the engine oil and resetting
the oil life monitoring system will
suspend the oil maintenance mode.
ENGINE COOLANT CHECK
Engine Coolant and Inverter
System Controller Coolant
Your vehicle is equipped with two
separate cooling systems. One is for
cooling the engine and one is for
cooling the inverter system controller
that is specific to the hybrid operating
system. The two systems operate
similarly, with the inverter system
controller cooling system generally
operating at a lower temperature and
pressure.
Checking the Engine Coolant
When the engine is cold, check the
concentration and level of the engine
coolant at the intervals listed in the
scheduled maintenance information.
See Scheduled Maintenance (page
445).
Note: Make sure that the level is
between the MIN and MAX marks on
the engine coolant reservoir.
Note: Coolant expands when it is hot.
The level may extend beyond the MAX
mark.
