System which informs the driver when the
next service is due, in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
The point at which the service is due is
calculated from the last indicator zero reset. It
is determined by two parameters:
-
t
he distance travelled,
-

t
he time elapsed since the last service.Between 600 miles (1 000 km)
and 1800 miles (3 000 km) remain
before the next service is due
For a few seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the spanner symbolising the service
operations comes on. The distance recorder
display line indicates the distance remaining
before the next service is due.
Example: 1 700 miles (2 800 km) remain
before the next service is due.
Less than 600 miles (1 000 km)
remain before the next service is due
Example: 560 miles (900 km) remain before
the next service is due.
For a few seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the display indicates:
For a few seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the screen indicates:
A few seconds after the ignition is switched on,
the spanner goes off ; the distance recorder
resumes its normal operation. The screen then
indicates the total and trip distances. A few seconds after the ignition is switched

indicate that a service must be carried out
soon.
More than 1800 miles (3000 km)
remain before the next service is due
When the ignition is switched on, no service
information appears in the screen.

indicator, information on the oil level is
displayed in the instrument panel for a few
seconds when the ignition is switched on, after
the service information.
Oil level correct
This is indicated by the flashing of " O I L",
accompanied by illumination of the service
warning lamp, an audible signal and a
message.
If the low oil level is confirmed by a check using
the dipstick, the level must be topped up to
prevent damage to the engine.
Refer to the "Checking levels" section.
Oil level low
This is signaled by the flashing of "OIL- -" .
Contact a CITRoËn dealer or a qualified
workshop.
In the event of a fault with the electric oil level

monitored.
While the system is faulty, you should check
the engine oil level using the manual dipstick
located under the bonnet.
Refer to the "Checking levels" section.
