Each time the ignition is switched on, and for fi ve seconds, the main-tenance symbol and the mileage will fl ash.
For example: you have the following distance left to travel before the next service: 900 km.

Functioning if the service interval is exceeded
Each time the ignition is switched on, the maintenance symbol and the extra mileage travelled (with a minus in front) will fl ash.

- Press control 1 and keep it pressed.
- Switch on the ignition.
- Keep control 1 pressed until the zero appears and the maintenance symbol disappears.
- Switch off the ignition.
