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 7 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the screen indicates:Less than 600 miles (1 000 km) remain before the next service is dueExample: 560 miles (900 km) remain before the next service is due.For 7 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the screen indicates:Service overdueFor 7 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the spanner flashes to indicate that the service must be carried out as soon as possible.Example: the service is overdue by 186 miles (300 km).For 7 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the screen indicates:7 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.7 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.7 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the distance recorder resumes its normal operation. The spanner remains on.
Instruments28208_en_Chap01_instruments-bord_ed01-2016Retrieving the service informationYou can access the service information at any time.FPress the trip distance recorder reset button.The service information is displayed for a few seconds, then disappears.With the trip mileage displayed, press the button for a few seconds.Trip recorder resetIf you have to disconnect the battery following this operation, lock the vehicle and wait at least 5 minutes for the reset to be registered.Resetting the service indicatorAfter each service, the service indicator must be reset to zero.If you have carried out the service on your vehicle yourself:Fswitch off the ignition,Fpress and hold the trip distance recorder reset button,Fswitch on the ignition; the distance recorder display begins a countdown,Fwhen the display indicates "=0", release the button; the spanner disappears.AdviceFor BlueHDi Diesel versions, this alert is also accompanied by the fixed illumination of the Service warning lamp, when the ignition is switched on.The distance remaining may be weighted by the time factor, depending on the driving conditions.Therefore, the spanner may also come on if you have exceeded the period since the last service, indicated in the manufacturer's service schedule.For BlueHDi Diesel versions, the spanner can also come on early, according to the degree of deterioration of the engine oil. The deterioration of the engine oil depends on the conditions in which the vehicle is used.
