Functioning if the service interval is exceeded
Each time the ignition is switched on, the maintenance symbol and the extra mileage travelled (with a minus i n f r o n t ) w i l l fl a s h .
For example: the preset service dis-tance has been exceeded by 300 km. Your vehicle must be serviced as soon as possible.
A few seconds after you have swit-ched on the ignition, the total mi-leage recorder returns to its normal operation and the maintenance symbol remains illuminated.
Resetting the mileage indicator to zero
Your CITROËN dealer performs this operation after each service. Howe-ver, if you carry out the servicing yourself, the procedure for resetting to zero is as follows:
- Switch off the ignition, then place the key on position S, steering lock.
- Press control 1 and keep it pressed.
- Switch on the ignition.
- Keep control 1 pressed until the zero appears and the maintenance symbol disappears.
- Switch off the ignition.
Maintenance intervals
If your vehicle is used in particularly harsh conditions, it is necessary to select the maintenance schedules for "special operating conditions" (see the Maintenance Guide) which consist of more frequent services.
