The service intervals are specified for vehicles with the fixed oil change service interval.
Intervals are determined individually on vehicles with the flexible oil change service interval. Oil change services only need to
be performed if the vehicle requires it. The specific operating conditions and the personal driving style are also taken into
consideration. The service early warning message is first displayed 30 days prior to the calculated oil change service due
date. The displayed remaining distance to be traveled is always rounded to 100 km (miles) and the remaining time is rounded
to whole days.

The specified mileage or time is the distance or time until the next service can be completed.
