Service indicator
System which informs the driver when the
next service is due, in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
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 in the screen.
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 recorder display line indicates the
distance remaining before the next service is due.
Example: 1 700 miles (2 800 km) remain
before the next service is due.
For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on,
the screen indicates:
5 seconds after the ignition is switched on,
the spanner goes off ; the distance recorder
resumes its normal operation. The screen then
indicates the total distance.
The point at which the next service is due is
calculated from the last indicator zero reset,
depending on the distance travelled and the
time elapsed since the last service.
For BlueHDi Diesel versions, the
degree of deterioration of the engine oil
is also taken into account (depending
on the country of sale).

operation.
The spanner remains on .The distance remaining may be
weighted by the time factor, depending
on the driving conditions.
Therefore, the spanner may also come
on if you have exceeded the period
since the last service, indicated in the
manufacturer's service schedule.
Less than 600 miles (1 000 km)
remain before the next service is due
Example:
560 miles (900 km) remain before
the next service is due.
For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on,
the screen 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 carried out
soon. For BlueHDi Diesel versions, the
spanner may also be brought on earlier
than expected, depending on the
degree of deterioration of the engine oil
(depending on the country of sale).
The rate of deterioration of the engine
oil depends on the driving conditions in
which the vehicle is used.

AdBlue® range indicators
These range indicators are present only on
BlueHDi Diesel versions.
Once the AdBlue
® tank is on reserve or after
detection of a fault with the SCR emissions
control system, when the ignition is switched
on, an indicator displays an estimate of the
distance that can be covered, the range, before
engine starting is prevented. Pressing this button will temporarily
display the remaining range with the
message "AdBlue: range greater than
1 500 miles" and, depending on the
level in the AdBlue tank, followed by
a message indicating that you can
top up with at least 10 litres.
The engine start prevention system
required by regulations is activated
automatically once the AdBlue

In the event of detection of a fault with the SCR emissions control system
In the event of detection of a faultDuring an authorised driving phase (between 650 miles and 0 miles) (1 100 km and 0 km)
A system that prevents engine starting is activated automatically 650 miles (1 100 km) after confirmation of a fault with the SCR emissions
control system. Have the system checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop as soon as possible.
If it is a temporary fault, the alert
disappears during the next journey,
after a self-diagnostics test of the SCR
emissions control system.
The AdBlue, SERVICE and engine self-
diagnostics warning lamps come on,
accompanied by an audible signal and the
display of the message "Emissions fault".
The alert is triggered when driving, when
the fault is detected for the first time, then
when switching on the ignition for subsequent
journeys, while the fault persists.
If a fault with the SCR system is confirmed (after
30 miles (50 km) covered with the permanent
display of the message signalling a fault), the
SERVICE and engine self-diagnostics warning
lamps come on and the AdBlue warning lamp
flashes, accompanied by an audible signal and
the temporary display in the instrument panel
of "NO START IN" and a distance, indicating
the remaining range expressed in miles or
kilometres before engine starting is prevented
(e.g. "NO START IN 350
miles" means that
starting will be prevented in 350 miles).
While driving, this display appears every 30 seconds
while the fault with the SCR system persists.
The alert is repeated when switching on the
ignition.
You should go to a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop as soon as possible.
Other wise, you will not be able to restart your
