Change oil Messgae

[Carroll Miller 2]

Have an 07 v-6 limited with about 4900miles on it. Changed the oil at about 2000. Planned on changing again at about 6000 or about 4,000 usage. Starting this AM the message center warns me that it is about time to chage oil. Does this everytime I crank up. Is there a way set this so that I do not see it everyu time I crank up or am I going to hve to put up with it each time the odometer hits multiples of 5000.

There should be a way to reset it when you change the oil. There has been in every car I've owned that had a change oil light. Check the owner's manual.
