Service indicator
System which informs the driver
when the next service is due, in ac-
cordance with the manufacturer's
servicing schedule.
The point at which the service is
due is calculated from the last indi-
cator zero reset. It is determined by
two parameters:
- the distance travelled,
- the time elapsed since the last service. 5 seconds after the ignition is switched
on,
the spanner is switched off ; the
distance recorder resumes its normal
operation. The display then indicates
the total and trip distances.
Less than 620 miles (1 000 km)
remain before the next service is
due
Examples
: 400 miles (900 km) re-
main before the next service is due.
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the display indicates: Service overdue
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on,
t h e s p a n n e r fl a s h e s

carried out as soon as possible.
Example: the service is overdue by
300 miles/km.

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. 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the distance recorder
resumes its normal operation.
The
spanner remains lit .
More than 620 miles (1 000 km)
remain before the next service
is due
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the spanner symbol-
ising the service operations comes
on. The distance recorder display
line indicates the distance remaining
before the next service is due.
Example: 4 800 miles/km remain
before the next service is due.
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the display indicates:
The distance remaining may be
weighted by the time factor, depend-
ing on the driver's driving habits.
Therefore, the spanner may also
come on if you have exceeded the
two year service interval.
