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.

is used.
5 seconds after the ignition is switched on,
the distance recorder resumes its normal
operation. The spanner remains on .
With BlueHDi Diesel versions, the Service

AdBlue® fluid range indicators
Once the AdBlue® tank is on reserve or after
detection of a fault with the SCR emissions
control system, when the ignition is switched
on an indicator displays an estimate of the
distance that can be covered, the range, before
engine starting is prevented.
In the event of simultaneous system fault and
low AdBlue
® level, the shortest range figure is
the one displayed. Range greater than 1 500 miles (2 400 km)
When the ignition is switched on, no
information on range is displayed automatically
in the instrument panel.
With the 12 inch colour instrument panel,
pressing this button temporarily displays the
driving range.
In the event of the risk of non-starting related to a lack of AdBlue®
The engine start prevention system
required by regulations is activated
automatically once the AdBlue

Remaining range between 350 and 1500 miles
(600 and 2 400 km)
When switching on the ignition, the AdBlue
warning lamp comes on for a few seconds,
accompanied by an audible signal and the
display of a message (e.g. "Top-up AdBlue:
Starting impossible in 900 miles") indicating
the remaining range expressed in miles or
kilometres.
When driving, the message is displayed every
200 miles (300 km) until the fluid level has been
topped-up.
Go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the AdBlue
® fluid topped-up.

(after 30 miles (50 km) covered with the
permanent display of the message signalling
a fault), the SERVICE and engine diagnostic
warning lamps come on and the AdBlue
warning lamp flashes, accompanied by an
audible signal and the display of a message
(e.g. "Emissions fault: Starting prevented in
150 miles") indicating the remaining range
expressed in miles or kilometres.

control system. Have the system checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop as soon as possible.
If it is a temporary fault, the alert
disappears during the next journey,
after self-diagnosis of the SCR system.
