Coolant temperature indicator
System which informs the driver of
the changes in the temperature of the
engine coolant while driving. With the engine running, when the
needle is:
- in zone
A , the temperature is correct,
- in zone B , the temperature is too
high; the max temperature warning
light 1 and the central STOP warning
light come on, accompanied by an

After driving for a few minutes, the
tempe rature and pressure in the coo ling
system increase.
To top up the level:

 wait for the engine to cool,

 unscrew the cap by two turns to allow the pressure to drop,

 when the pressure has dropped, remove the cap,

 top up the level to the "MAX" mark.

INSTRUMENTS and CONTROLS
Service indicator
System which informs the driver when the next service is due, in accord-ance with the manufacturer's servicing schedule.
The point at which the service is due is calculated from the last indicator zero reset. It is determined by two param-eters:
- the distance travelled,
-the time elapsed since the last service.
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 re-corder display line indicates the distance remaining before the next service is due.
Example: 2 800 km remain before the next service is due.
For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the display indicates:
5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the spanner is switched off ; the switched offdistance recorder resumes its normal operation. The display then indicates the total and trip distances.
Less than 600 miles (1 000 km) remain before the next service is due
Example: 900 km remain before the next service is due.
For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the display indicates:
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 car-ried out soon.
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 on the display.

Following this operation, if you wish
to disconnect the battery, lock the
vehicle and wait at least fi ve minutes
for the zero reset to be taken into
account.
Maintenance indicator zero reset
After each service, the maintenance in-
dicator must be reset to zero.
The procedure for resetting to zero is as
follows:

 switch off the ignition,

 press and hold the trip distance
recorder zero reset button,

 switch on the ignition; the
distance recorder display begins a
countdown,

 when the display indicates "=0" ,
release the button; the spanner
disappears.
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.
Service overdue
For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the spanner fl ashes to in-dicate that the service must be carried out as soon as possible.
Example: the service is overdue by 300 miles (km).
For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the display indicates:
5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the distance recorder resumes its normal operation. The spanner re-mains lit .
Retrieving the service information
You can access the service information
at any time.

 Press the trip distance recorder zero
reset button.
The service information is displayed for a few seconds, then disappears.
