Practical hints
What to do if …
Vehicle status messages in the
multifunction display
Warning and malfunction messages ap-
pear in the multifunction display located in
the instrument cluster.
Certain warning and malfunction messag-
es are accompanied by an audible signal.
Address these messages accordingly and
follow the additional instructions given in
this Operator’s Manual.
Selecting the vehicle status message
memory menu in the control system
(
୴ page 126) displays both cleared and
uncleared messages.
High-priority messages appear in the
multifunction display in red color.
Certain messages of high priority cannot
be cleared from the multifunction display
using the reset button
J ( ୴ page 24) or
button j, k, ·, or è on the
stering wheel.
Other high-priority messages and messag-
es of less immediate priority (regular dis-
play colors) can be cleared from the
multifunction display using the reset
button
J ( ୴ page 24) or button j,
k, ·, or è on the stering wheel.
They are then stored in the vehicle status
message memory (
୴ page 126). Remem-
ber that clearing a message will only make
the message disappear. Clearing a mes-
sage will not correct the condition that
caused the message to appear.
Warning!

All categories of messages contain impor-
tant information which should be taken note
of and, where a malfunction is indicated, ad-
dressed as soon as possible at an autho-
rized Mercedes-Benz Center.
Failure to repair condition noted may cause
damage not covered by the Mercedes-Benz
Limited Warranty, or result in property dam-
age or personal injury.
