51Monitoring
This information is displayed for a few seconds after switching on the ignition. It informs the driver when the next ser vice is due, in accordance with the manufacturer's ser vicing schedule. The point at which the ser vice is due is calculated from the last ser vice indicator zero
reset. It is determined by two parameters: - the distance travelled, - the time elapsed since the last ser vice.
Service indicator
Between 600 miles (1 000 km) and 1 800 miles (3 000 km) remain before the next service is due
For a few seconds after the ignition is switched on, the spanner symbolising the service operations comes on. The distance recorder display line or a specific message in the instrument panel central screen indicates the distance remaining before the next service is due. For example: 1 700 miles (2 800 km) remain before the next ser vice is due. For a few seconds after the ignition is switched on, the screen indicates:
Less than 600 miles (1 000 km) remain before the next service is due
Example: 560 miles (900 km) remain before the next ser vice is due. For a few seconds after the ignition is switched on, the screen indicates:
A few seconds after the ignition is switched on, the distance recorder resumes its normal operation. The spanner remains on to indicate that a ser vice must be carried out
soon.
A few seconds after the ignition is switched on, the spanner goes off ; the distance recorder s offresumes its normal operation. The screen then indicates the total and trip distances.
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 instrument panel central screen.

A few seconds after the ignition is switched on, the distance recorder resumes its normal operation. The spanner remains on .
The distance remaining may be weighted by the time factor, depending on the type of driving. Therefore, the spanner may also come on if you have exceeded the two year ser vice inter val.
Service indicator zero reset
After each ser vice, the ser vice indicator must be reset to zero. The procedure for resetting to zero is as follows: switch off the ignition, press and hold the ".../000" trip distance recorder zero reset button, switch on the ignition; the distance recorder display begins a countdown, when the screen indicates "=/0" and the spanner disappears, release the button.
This operation cannot be carried out while a reminder of the ser vicing information is being displayed. Following this operation, if you wish to disconnect the battery, lock the vehicle and wait at least five minutes for the zero reset to be registered.
Recalling the service information
You can recall the ser vice information at any time. Briefly press the ".../000" trip distance recorder zero reset button. The ser vice information is displayed for a few seconds, in the total distance recorder line or in the instrument panel central colour screen, according to version.
Service overdue
For a few seconds after the ignition is switched on, the spanner flashes to indicate that the service must be carried out as soon as possible. Example: the ser vice is overdue by 180 miles (300 km). For a few seconds after the ignition is switched
