  Maintenance indicator  
 System  which  informs  the  driver  
when the next service is due, in ac-
cordance  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 
parameters:  
   -   the distance travelled, 
  -   the  time  elapsed  since  the  last  service.    5 seconds after the ignition is switched  
on,  
the spanner is switched off  ; the 
distance recorder resumes its normal 
operation. The display then indicates 
the total and trip distances.  
  Less than 620 miles (1 000 km) 
remain before the next service is due 
  
Example:    560  miles  (900  km)  re-
main before the next service is due.  
 For  5  seconds  after  the  ignition  is  
switched on, the display indicates:    Service overdue  
 For  5  seconds      after  the  ignition  is  
switched  on,   
 t h e    s p a n n e r    fl   a s h e s   
to  indicate  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 remains on   to indicate that 
a service must be carried out soon.    5  seconds  after  the  ignition  is 
switched  on,  the  distance  recorder 
resumes  its  normal  operation.   
The 
spanner remains lit  .   More than 620 miles (1 000 km) 
remain before the next service is due 
 For  5  seconds  after  the  ignition  is 
switched  on,  the  spanner  symbol-
ising  the  service  operations  comes 
on.  The  distance  recorder  display 
line indicates the distance remaining 
before the next service is due.  
  
Example:    4  800  miles/km  remain 
before the next service is due. 
 For  5  seconds  after  the  ignition  is  
switched on, the display indicates: 
 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.
