Service indicator
System which informs the driver when the
next service is due, in accordance with the
manufacturer's service schedule.
The point at which the service is due is
calculated from the last indicator zero reset,
according to the mileage covered and the time
elapsed since the last service.
For BlueHDi Diesel versions, depending on the
country of sale, the degree of deterioration of
the 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
the next service is due.
For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on,
the screen indicates:
Between 600 miles (1 000 km)
and 1 800 miles (3 000 km) remain
before the next service is due
For 5 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.
For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the
screen indicates:
5 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. 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on,
the distance recorder resumes its normal
operation.
The spanner remains on to
indicate that a service must be carried out
soon.
