SERVICE INTERVAL DISPLAY CLOCKRemaining distance for serviceThe distance remaining before the next
scheduled service is displayed in miles /
kilometers with the ignition key in position
1 or higher. The display also indicates
whether an engine oil service and/or an
inspection is due.
The onboard computer bases its calcula-
tions of the remaining distance on your
driving style in the period immediately pre-
ceding your data request. The remaining
distance display counts backwards in steps
of 35 miles / 50 km to the next service. A
flashing message and a minus sign in front
of the display that again begins counting
forwards mean that the service interval has
been exceeded.
Please contact your MINI Dealer for an
appointment.
The remaining-distance display disappears
after approx. 5 seconds and changes to the
odometer and trip odometer display.
For more information on the service inter-
val display, refer to page 102.
