remain before the next service is due
When the ignition is switched on, no service information   appears   in   the   screen.
Less than 600 miles (1 000 km)
remain before the next service is due
Example: 560   miles   (900   km)   remain   before  t
he   next   service   is   due.
For
  5   seconds   after   the   ignition   is   switched   on,  
t

he   screen   indicates:
