SERVICE INDICATOR
This is a visual reminder of when the next
service is due. This service is to be car-
ried out according to the manufacturer's
servicing schedule.
Once an engine oil level indication has
been displayed, the display indicates
the total and trip distances.
If the service is overdue, each time the
ignition is switched on and for 5 seconds,
the distance and the spanner fl ash.

Example: when the ignition is switched
on and for 5 seconds, the display in-
dicates that the service is overdue by
300 miles/km. The service should be
carried out very shortly.
Once the servicing and oil level informa-
tion has been displayed, the total distance
recorder resumes normal operation and
the spanner remains lit.
The point at which a service is due is
calculated using two parameters:
- the total distance travelled,
- the time elapsed since the last ser- vice.
The distance remaining may be weight-
ed by the time factor, depending on the
user's driving habits.
Engine oil temperature indicator
When the ignition is switched on or while
the vehicle is moving, this indicates the
engine oil temperature.
When the needle is in zone C , the
temperature is correct.
When the needle is in zone D , the
temperature is too high.
Reduce your speed to lower the tem-
perature. Operation
As soon as the ignition is switched on
and for 5 seconds, the spanner sym-
bolising the service operations is lit.
The trip recorder display shows the
distance remaining (in round fi gures)
before the next service.

Example: when switching on the igni-
tion and for 5 seconds, the display
shows that 900 miles/km remain before
the next service is due.
