This programmes service intervals according
  to   the   use   of   the   vehicle.More than 1 000 miles/km before the 
next service is due
Example:
  4   800   miles/km   remain  
before
  the   next   service   is   due.   When  
the ignition is switched on and for a 
few
  seconds,   the   screen   shows:
a few seconds after the ignition is 
switched on, the oil level is displayed 
(depending on version), then the total 
distance
  recorder   resumes   normal  
operation showing the total and trip 
distances.
Less than 1 000 miles/km before the 
next service is due
Each
  time   the   ignition   is   switched   on  
and for a few seconds, the spanner 
flashes
  and   the   number   of   miles/
kilometres
  remaining   is   displayed:
a few seconds after the ignition is 
switched on, the oil level is displayed 
(depending on version), then the total 
distance
  recorder   resumes   normal  
operation
  and   the   spanner   remains   on.  
This indicates that a service should be 
carried
  out   shortly.
Service overdue
Operation
A
 
few   moments   after   the   ignition  
has been switched on, the spanner 
indicating
  a   service   operation   comes  
on; the display for the total distance 
recorder
  gives   (in   round   figures)   the  
distance
  remaining   before   the   next  
service.
The points at which a service is due 
are
  calculated   from   the   last   indicator  
zero
  reset.
The point at which a service is due is 
determined
  by   two   parameters:
-
 
the distance travelled,
-
 
the
   time   which   has   elapsed   since  
the
  last   service.
The
  distance   remaining   before   the  
next
  service   may   be   weighted   by  
the
  time   factor,   depending   on   the  
type
  of   driving. With the engine running the spanner 
remains
  on   until   the   service   has   been  
carried
  out.
For BlueH
d i  d iesel versions, this 
alert
  is   also   accompanied   by   the   fixed  
illu
mination   of   the   Service   warning  
lamp,
  on   switching   on   the   ignition.
Each
  time   the   ignition   is  
switched on and for a few 
seconds, the spanner 
flashes
  and   the   excess  
distance
  is   displayed.
For BlueH
d i  d iesel versions, the 
spanner
  can   also   come   on   early,  
according the level of deterioration 
of
  the   engine   oil.   Deterioration   of   the  
engine oil depends on the conditions of 
use
  of   the   vehicle.

The Stop & Start system puts the engine
  temporarily   on   standby   -   STOP mode
  -   during   stops   in   the   traffic   (red

HILL StA rt  ASSIS t
This system (also called HHC - Hill Holder
  Control),   linked   to   the   dynamic  
stability
  control   system,   makes   hill  
starts easier and is activated in the 
following
  conditions:
-
 
the
   vehicle   must   be   stationary,  
engine
  running,   foot   on   the   brake,
-
 
the
   gradient   of   the   road   must   be  
steeper than 5%,
-
 
uphill,
   the   gearbox   must   be   in  
neutral or in a gear other than 
reverse,
-
 
downhill,
   reverse   gear   must   be  
engaged.
The Hill Start 
a
ssist function is 
a
  driving   aid   system.   It   is   not   an  
automatic
  vehicle   parking   function   or  
an
  automatic   parking   brake.
Operation
With the brake pedal and clutch pedal pressed,  from   the   time   you   release   the  
brake
  pedal   you   have   approximately  
2 seconds before the vehicle starts to 
roll
  back   and   without   using   the   parking  
brake
  within   which   to   move   off.
During
  the   moving   off   phase,   the  
function
  is   deactivated   automatically,  
gradually
  releasing   the   braking  
pressure.
  During   this   phase,   the  
characteristic
  noise   of   mechanical  
release
  of   the   brakes   may   be   heard,  
indicating
  the   imminent   movement   of  
the
  vehicle.
Operating fault
Hill start assist is deactivated in the 
following   situations:
-
 
when the clutch pedal is released,
-
 
when
   the   parking   brake   is   applied,
-
 
when the engine is switched of
 f,
-
 
when
   the   engine   stalls.
If
  a   malfunction   of   the  
system
  occurs,   this  
warning
  lamp   comes   on  
accompanied
  by   an   audible  
signal
  and   confirmed   by  
a
  message   in   the   screen.   Have   the
