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
screen.

System which informs the driver when the
next service is due, in accordance with the
manufacturer's service schedule.

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 and a message is
displayed in the instrument panel indicating
the distance or time remaining before the next
service is due.
Example:

1 900 miles (2 800 km) remain

before the next service is due.
When the ignition is switched on, the
instrument panel screen temporarily indicates:

A few seconds after the ignition is switched on,
the spanner goes off

The point at which the service is due is
calculated from the last service indicator reset
to zero, according to the mileage covered and
the time elapsed since the last service.

For BlueHDi Diesel versions, depending
on the country of sale, the degree of
deterioration of the engine oil may also
be taken into account.

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 service is overdue by 300 miles.

When the ignition is switched on, the instrument
panel screen indicates:

For BlueHDi Diesel versions, the
spanner may also come on early,
according to the level of deterioration
of the engine oil, which depends on the
driving conditions in which the vehicle
is used.

The spanner remains on

alongside the

mileage recorder to indicate that a service is
overdue.

With BlueHDi Diesel versions, the
Service

warning lamp also comes on

when the ignition is switched on.

Less than 600 miles (1 000 km)
remain before the next service is due

Example:

500 miles (900 km) remain before

the next service is due.
For a few seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the instrument panel screen indicates:

After the message disappears, the spanner
remains on

alongside the mileage recorder as

a reminder that a service must be carried out
soon.

The spanner may come on if you have
exceeded the period since the last service,
as indicated in the manufacturer's service
schedule.

Monitoring

If you have to disconnect the battery
following this operation, lock the vehicle
and wait at least five minutes for the

indicator*

Oil level incorrect

This is indicated by the display of the message
"Oil level incorrect" in the instrument panel
screen, accompanied by the service warning
lamp and an audible signal.
If the low oil level is confirmed by a check using
the dipstick, the level must be topped up to
avoid damage to the engine.
For more information on checking the levels,
refer to the corresponding section.

Oil level indicator fault

This is signalled by the display of the message "Oil
level measurement invalid" in the instrument panel.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
In the event of a fault with the electric indicator,
the oil level is no longer monitored.
If the system is faulty, you must check the
engine oil level using the manual dipstick
located under the bonnet.
For more information on checking the levels,
refer to the corresponding section.

On versions fitted with an electric oil level
indicator, the state of the engine oil level is
displayed in the instrument panel for a few
seconds, after the servicing information.

The level read will only be correct if
the vehicle is on level ground and the
engine has been off for more than
