service is due
EMISSION CONTROL
EOBD (European On Board
The points at which a service is due are
calculated from the last indicator zero reset.
Each time the ignition is switched on and for a few
seconds, the spanner flashes and the number of
miles/kilometres remaining is displayed:
Diagnosis) is a diagnostics
system which complies with,
among others, the standards
The point at which a service is due is
determined by two parameters:
concerning authorised emissions of:
-
-
the distance travelled,
-
-
-
CO (carbon monoxide),
the time which has elapsed since
the last service.
HC (unburnt hydrocarbons),
NOx (nitrogen oxides) or particles,
detected by oxygen sensors placed
upstream and downstream of the
catalytic converters.
The distance remaining before the next
service may be weighted by the time
A few seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the oil level is displayed, then the total
distance recorder resumes normal operation
and the spanner remains lit. This indicates
that a service should be carried out shortly.
factor, depending on the driver’s driving
habits.
Therefore, the driver is warned of any
malfunction of this emission control system
by the lighting of this specific warning light
on the instrument panel.
More than 1 000 miles/km before
the next service is due
Example: 4 800 miles/km remain before
the next service is due. When the ignition is
switched on and for a few seconds,
the display shows:
There is a risk of damage to the catalytic
converter. Have it checked by a CITROËN
dealer.
Service overdue
Each time the ignition is switched
on and for a few seconds, the
spanner flashes and the excess
distance is displayed.
SERVICE INDICATOR
This programmes service intervals according
to the use of the vehicle.
With the engine running the spanner
remains lit until the service has been
carried out.
Operation
A few moments after the ignition has been
switched on, the spanner indicating a
service operation lights up; the display for
the total distance recorder tells you (in round
figures) the distance remaining before the
next service.
A few seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the oil level is displayed, then the total
distance recorder resumes normal operation
showing the total and trip distances.
First of the two terms reached: the spanner
also lights up if the two-year interval has
elapsed.
