c) Oil change interval
Distance remaining until the next service (displayed in
miles/kilometres and months), then when the service
nears, several scenarios are possible:
– distance/time remaining less than 900 miles
(1,500 km) or one month: the message “Service due
in” is displayed accompanied by the nearest term (dis-
tance or time);
– distance/time remaining 0 km/miles or service date
reached: the message “Service required ” is displayed
accompanied by warning light
©.
The vehicle requires an oil change as soon as possible.
Service in
30000km /24 MONTHS Service due in
100km
Service due in 10 days
NB: depending on the vehicle, the service interval 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 distance 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.

emissions
Your vehicle has been designed to emit
fewer greenhouse gases (CO2) while in
use, and therefore to consume less fuel
(eg. 140 g/km, equivalent to 5.3 l/100
km for a diesel vehicle).
Our vehicles are also equipped with a
particle filter system including a cata -
lytic converter, an oxygen sensor and
an active carbon filter (the latter pre -
vents vapour from the fuel tank being
released into the open air).
For certain diesel vehicles, this system
also has a particle filter to reduce the
volume of soot particles emitted.
Please make your own
contribution towards
protecting the environment
too
– Worn parts replaced in the course of
routine vehicle maintenance (vehi -
cle battery, oil filter, air filter, batter -
ies, etc.) and oil containers (empty or
filled with used oil) must be disposed
of through specialist organisations. –
At the end of the vehicle’s service
life, it should be sent to approved
centres to ensure that it is recycled.
– In all cases, comply with local legis -
lation.
Recycling
Your vehicle is 85% recyclable and
95% recoverable.
To achieve these objectives, many of
the vehicle components have been de-
signed to enable them to be recycled.
The materials and structures have
been carefully designed to allow these
components to be easily removed and
reprocessed by specialist companies.
In order to preserve raw material re -
sources, this vehicle incorporates nu -
merous parts made from recycled plas-
tics or renewable materials (vegetable
or animal-derived materials such as
cotton or wool).
Your vehicle has been designed with
respect for the
environment in mind for
its entire service life: during production,
use and at the end of its life.
This commitment is illustrated by the of
the manufacturer eco² signature.Manufacture
Your vehicle has been manufactured at
a factory which complies with a policy
to reduce the environmental impact
on the surrounding areas (reduction of
water and energy consumption, visual
and noise pollution, atmospheric emis-
sions and waste water; sorting and re-
using waste).
