Default Service Engine Soon Display

I've done the search thing and I'm waiting on an owner manual but I'm hoping someone can tell me how react to "Service Engine Soon" display. I'm not getting any other codes or displays that would indicate any problems. The oil has been recently changed so what should I be doing to the engine soon?

I had the "SES" come on when the connector came off the oil pressure sending unit. So if you had a malfuction it may cause it.
Do a code search on the DIC and see what comes up as H (history) or C(current)
Just a thought

Turn your key to the on positon. Push in and hold the options button. While holding in the options button press the fuel button 4 times. The codes will come up and indicate an H for history or a C for Current.

By chance did the Check Engine light come on after you fueled up. I believe the light will come on if the gas cap isn't on right. Try reseating it then disconnect your negative cable for about 45 seconds and reconnect. See if that doesn't turn off the light.
