When the engine is
running, this indicates
the temperature of the
coolant (refer to the
“Coolant temperature
indicator” section).
Coolant temperature
When the engine is run-
ning, this indicates the
number of miles (kilome-
tres) which can still be
travelled with the fuel re-
maining in the tank in re-
lation to the average con-
sumption over the last
few miles (kilometres)
travelled (refer to the “Range” section).
Range
This indicates the aver-
age consumption, the
average speed and the
current consumption (re-
fer to the “Trip computer”
section).

DISTANCE RECORDERS (A / B)
System for measuring the total distance
travelled by the vehicle during its
service life and the distance travelled in
a day or other period until it is reset to
zero by the driver.
Zero reset
With the ignition on, press the INFO
button for more than 2 seconds until
zeros appear. When the engine is
running, this indicates
the temperature of the
coolant.
COOLANT TEMPERATURE
If the bar is close to
the

temperature is too high.
T h e s y m b o l fl a s h e s w h e n y o u r e n g i n e
is overheating.
It is imperative that you stop your
vehicle safely.
Wait a few minutes before switching
off the engine.
Wait for the engine to cool
before topping up the level. The
cooling system is pressurised.
When the engine is
running , this indicates
the distance which can
still be travelled with the
fuel remaining in the tank
in relation to the average
consumption over the
last few miles/kilometres
travelled.
RANGE
When the range is less than 30 miles
(50 km) , dashes are displayed.
Fill the fuel tank as soon as possible.
The display of the range is updated.
As the cooling system is pressurised, to
avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew the
cap by two turns to allow the pressure
to drop.
When the pressure has dropped,
remove the cap and top up the level, if
necessary.
Consult a CITROËN dealer. T h i s fi g u r e m a y i n c r e a s e f o l l o w i n g a

SERVICE INDICATOR Resetting the service indicator
to zero
Your CITROËN dealer carries out this
operation after each service.
If you have carried out your vehicle’s
service yourself, the zero reset
procedure is the following:
switch off the ignition.
press the INFO button several times
in succession until the service indi-
cator is displayed.
press and hold the INFO button for
a few seconds until the spanner
fl a s h e s .
press the INFO button while the
s p a n n e r i s fl a s h i n g t o c h a n g e t h e
display “---” to “CLEAR” then the

ice is due is displayed.
Service overdue
Operation
When the ignition is switched on, you
must press the INFO button several
times in succession until the service
indicator is displayed. The distance
recorder display line indicates the
number of miles (kilometres) remaining
and the time elapsed line indicates the
number of months remaining before the
n e x t s e r v i c e i s d u e .
After a certain distance and a
certain time, the displaying of “---”
is reinitialised and the display
indicates the time remaining before
t h e n e x t s e r v i c e i s d u e .
System which informs the driver when
t h e n e x t s e r v i c e i s d u e i n a c c o r d a n c e
with the manufacturer’s servicing
schedule.
T h e p o i n t a t w h i c h t h e n e x t s e r v i c e i s
due is calculated from the last service
indicator zero reset.
It is determined by two parameters:
- the distance travelled (in miles
(km)),
- the time elapsed since the last serv- ice (in months).
The distance remaining to be travelled
may be weighted by the time factor,
depending on the user’s driving habits.
Example: the display indicates that
7300 miles (kilometres) remain before
t h e n e x t s e r v i c e i s d u e .
The symbol “---” remains displayed
u n t i l t h e fi r s t s e r v i c e o f a n e w v e h i c l e
has been carried out.
Example: the display indicates that the
service is overdue. This service must
be carried out by a CITROËN dealer.
Each time the ignition is switched on,
the display
“PERIODIC INSPECTION”
is displayed for a few seconds to
indicate that the service must be carried
out without delay.
