Honda CR-V: Resetting the Engine Oil Life Display
Your dealer will reset the display after completing the required maintenance service. You will see ‘‘OIL LIFE 100%’’ on the information display the next time you turn the ignition switch to the ON (II) position.

1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON (II) position.
2. Press the select/reset knob repeatedly until the engine oil life is displayed.
3. Press the select/reset knob for about 10 seconds. The information display shows the resetmode initial display as shown.
4. Select the ‘‘OIL LIFE’’ indicator by turning the select/reset knob. The display begins to blink. Push the same knob to enter this setting.
5. The engine oil life and the maintenance item code(s) will begin to blink. Press the select/ reset knob for another 5 seconds.
6. The maintenance item code(s) will disappear, and the engine oil life will reset to ‘‘100.’’
