Mileage before service
Distance remaining until the next oil change.
There are several scenarios:
– distance less than 900 miles (1,500 km). It appears on the display for approxi -
mately 8 seconds when the ignition is switched on as soon as the distance is
less than or equal to 900 miles (1,500 km).
– distance less than 0 miles/km. The
© indicator light will light up on the
instrument panel.
The vehicle requires an oil change as soon as possible.
NB: depending on the vehicle, the mileage before an oil change 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
Document.
Resetting: to reset the mileage before an oil change, press and hold one of the display reset buttons for approximately 10 sec-
onds until the display shows the mileage permanently.
