b

ecomes   polluting;   go   to   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified   workshop  
w

ithout   delay   to   have   the   emissions   of   nitrogen   oxides   brought   back   to  
t

he   legal   level.

The
  point   at   which   the   service   is   due   is  
c

alculated   from   the   last   indicator   zero   reset,  
a

ccording   to   the   mileage   covered   and   the   time  
e

lapsed   since   the   last   service.
For
  BlueHDi   Diesel   versions,   depending   on   the  
c

ountry   of   sale,   the   degree   of   deterioration   of  
t

he   engine   oil   may   also   be   taken   into   account.
More than 1 800 miles (3 000 km)
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

For
  5   seconds   after   the   ignition   is   switched   on,  
t

he   screen   indicates:
Between 600 miles (1 000 km)

d

isplayed   in   the   instrument   panel   for   a   few  
s

econds,   after   the   servicing   information.

s

creen,   accompanied   by   the   service   warning  
l

amp   and   an   audible   signal.
If

a

void   damage   to   the   engine.
For
  more   information   on   Checking levels,
