j) Mileage before service
Distance remaining until the next oil change.
There are several scenarios:
– mileage before oil change service less than 1000 miles Warning light
Ê on the instrument panel comes on accompanied by the message
“1000 miles”.
– mileage before oil change service 0 miles. Warning light
Ê on the
instrument panel comes on accompanied by the message “--- miles”.
The distance appears on the display for approximately 8 seconds when
the ignition is switched on as soon as the distance is less than or equa\
l
to 1000 miles. The vehicle requires an oil change as soon as possible.
Note: depending on the vehicle, the mileage before an oil change varies accor\
ding to the driving style (frequent driving at low
speed, door-to-door journeys, extensive use at idle speed, towing a trai\
ler etc.). The distance remaining until the next oil ch ange
can therefore decrease more quickly in some cases than the actual distan\
ce travelled.
The oil change intervals are independent of the vehicle’s maintenance schedule: please refer to your vehicle’s maintenance do-
cument.
Resetting: to reset the mileage before an oil change, press and hold the display r\
eset button for approximately 10 seconds until
the display shows the range permanently.

SPECIAL FEATURES OF PETROL VERSIONS
The following operating conditions:
– driving for long periods when the low fuel level warning light is lit;
– using leaded petrol;
– using oil or fuel additives which are not approved by the manufacturer.
Or operating faults such as:
– faulty ignition system, running out of fuel or disconnected spark plugs re-
sulting in the engine misfiring or cut-
ting out when driving;
– loss of power,
may cause the catalytic converter to
overheat, reducing its efficiency which
may irreparably damage it and cause
heat damage to the vehicle. If you notice any of the above operating
faults, have the necessary repairs car-
ried out as soon as possible by an ap-
proved Dealer.
These faults may be avoided by reg-
ularly taking your vehicle to your ap-
proved dealer at the intervals speci-
fied in your Maintenance Service
Document.
Starting problems
To avoid damaging the catalytic con-
verter,
do not keep trying to start the
engine (using the start button, or by
pushing or towing the vehicle) without
having identified and corrected the
starting fault.
If the fault cannot be identified, do not
continue to try and start the engine, but
contact an approved dealer.
Do not park the vehicle or
run the engine in locations
where combustible sub-
stances or materials such
as grass or leaves can come into
contact with a hot exhaust system.

Resetting the alert after an oil

tion, for ten seconds you must:
– Depress the accelerator pedal fully,
– with your foot on the accelerator, de-press the brake pedal three times in
succession.
Reinitialisation is complete when the
# indicator light goes out. If this is
not the case, repeat the operation.
Special case: if you change the oil
before the oil change interval exceeded
warning is displayed, it will also be nec-
essary to reset the display. In this case,
the
# warning light comes on for
approximately 5 seconds to confirm the
reset.
The engine may be hot
during operations in close
proximity. In addition, the
engine cooling fan may
come on at any moment.
