In vehicles with fixed oil change service, fixed

vehicle needs it. This also takes into account the
conditions under which the vehicle is used and the
individual driving style. The service reminder is
shown for the first time
30 days before the date on which the service in
question is to be performed. Missing kilometres
and time are always rounded off to 100 km (mi-
llas) and full days, respectively.

permissible service intervals must be taken into
account.
