Think it depends if you have the premium package with the dash LCD screen. Mine has it.

The basic info center, at least for the 2011 models, only has the IOLM.
It does not have the coolant reminder or the fuel filter reminder. That is only a feature of the optional LCD screen.

Gary, You may already know this, but if not(since you said this is your first time), after you change the filters, make sure you cycle the key on(but dont start it) for about 30 seconds, 4-5 times. This purges the air out of the fuel system.

Others have reported not doing that and having all sorts of problems.
