SERVICE DUE
c) Oil change interval Distance remaining until the next oil change (displayed in miles/kilometres and
months), then when the time nears, several scenarios are possible:
–
distance/time remaining less than 900 miles (1,500 km) or one month: the mes-
sage “oil change due” is displayed;
–
distance/time remaining 0 km/milesor service date reached : the message
“change oil soon” is displayed, accompanied by the
Ê and ú warning lights.
The vehicle requires an oil change as soon as possible.
nB: depending on the vehicle, the interval between oil changes varies according to the driving style (frequent driving at low
speed, door-to-door journeys, extensive use at idle speed, towing a trailer etc.). The distance remaining until the next oil change
can therefore decrease more quickly in some cases than the actual distan\
ce travelled.
The oil change intervals are independent of the vehicle’s maintenance schedule: please refer to your vehicle’s Maintenance
Service Booklet.
resetting: to reset the oil change interval, press and hold one of the display reset buttons for approximately 10 seconds until
the display shows the interval permanently.
