It informs you when the next routine service is due in accordance with the vehicle servicing schedule in the Maintenance Guide. This information is dependent on two p arameters: the mileage covered, and the time elapsed since the last visit.
Operation
When the ignition is switched on, the maintenance indicator spanner is displayed for a few seconds. The mileage recorder display indicates how many miles remain to be trav-elled before the next service is due (in thousands and hundreds of miles).
Example: there remain up to the next service:
A few seconds after this, the engine oil level indicator is displayed, then the total mileage recorder resumes its normal role.
Operation if the distance to the next service is less than 1 000 km (600 miles)
Each time you switch on the igni- t i o n a n d f o r 5 s e c o n d s , t h e s p a n - n e r a n d t h e d i s t a n c e fl a s h .
Example: there remain up to the n e x t s e r v i c e : 5 0 0 k m ( 3 0 0 m i l e s ) . On switching on the ignition and for 5 s e c o n d s , t h e i n s t r u m e n t p a n e l indicates:
A few seconds after this, the engine oil level indicator is displayed, then the total mileage recorder resumes its normal role and the mainte-nance symbol remains lit up. This is a warning to you that a service must be carried out at the earliest opportunity.
Operation if the service interval has been passed
Each time you switch on the igni-tion, the maintenance symbol and the distance covered (preceded by a minus) beyond the recom- m e n d e d i n t e r v a l fl a s h .
Example: You have exceeded t h e s e r v i c e i n t e r v a l b y 3 0 0 k m ( 3 0 0 m i l e s ) .
The routine service on your vehi-cle needs to be carried as soon as possible.

Range
This is the distance that can still be travelled on the amount of fuel remaining in the tank.
When the distance that can still be travelled i s l e s s t h a n a p p r o x . 2 5 k m ( a r o u n d 1 5 m i l e s ) , only three dashes are shown.
Average consumption
This is the ratio between the fuel consumed and the distance travelled since the last reset t o z e r o f o r t h e J o u r n e y s e l e c t e d .
Instantaneous consumption
This is the result from the consumption r e c o r d e d w i t h i n t h e l a s t 2 s e c o n d s . T h i s f u n c -tion is only available when travelling at over 3 0 k m / h ( a p p r o x . 2 0 m p h ) .
Average speed
This is obtained, from the last reset to zero of the trip computer, by dividing the distance travelled by the time taken (with ignition switched on).
Distance travelled
This is the distance that has been travelled s i n c e t h e l a s t r e s e t t o z e r o o f t h e J o u r n e y selected.
