switched on. It informs the driver when the next service is due, in
accordance with the manufacturer's service schedule.

screen indicates the distance remaining before the next service is due.
Example: 1 700 miles (2 800 km) remain before the next service is due.

indicates:
Less than 600 miles (1 000 km) remain before the next service is due
