What is an Intelligent Oil Life Monitor System?
Intelligent Oil Life Monitor (IOLM) keeps track of your driving habits and calculates the health of your engine oil.
The Intelligent Oil Life Monitor System (IOLM) uses actual engine data, current and operating conditions plus your driving habits to calculate precisely when you need an oil change; an instrument cluster message alerts you when it's time to change oil and filters.
The Engine Oil change reminder uses several important factors in its calculations, such as driving habits and driving conditions, to determine if an engine oil change is required.
Resetting the Intelligent Oil Life Monitor
You can reset the oil life monitoring system after changing the engine oil and oil filter.
- Press the menu button on the steering wheel to enter the instrument cluster displayed on the main menu.
- Select Settings.
- Select Oil Life.
- Press and hold the OK button until the system reset confirmation appears.
This way, you can change the engine oil only when it’s necessary, helping you save. For more information, please visit Ford's website or view the Owner's Manual for your vehicle.
