Practical advice
Display messages
The on-board computer shows warnings or
malfunctions in the multi-function display.
Certain messages are accompanied by a
warning tone.
High-priority messages are displayed in
red in the multi-function display, while me-
dium-priority messages are displayed in
yellow and low-priority messages in white.
Please respond in accordance with the
messages and follow the additional notes
in this Owner’s Manual.
You can confirm low-priority messages
with # or L . These are then stored
in the message memory and can be called
up if necessary ( page 285). You cannot
confirm messages of the highest priority.
If you select the
"Messages" entry in the
"Service" menu in the on-board computer
( page 285), you can scroll through the
messages by pressing the $ or %
buttons on the multi-function steering
wheel.
i
Turning the key to position 2 in the ignition
lock or pressing the KEYLESS GO* button twice
activates all the warning and indicator lamps
(except for the turn signal indicator lamps) and
the multi-function display. Please make sure that
they are working properly before commencing a
journey.
The following tables show all the display
messages. The messages are divided into
sections to make it easier to find the re-
spective message:
The text-style messages from

phabetically

Risk of accident
No messages can be displayed if there is a
failure of the instrument cluster and/or the
multi-function display. You will not then be
able to see information about the vehicle
status, such as speed and outside tempera-
ture, warning and indicator lamps, malfunc-
tion and warning messages or the failure of
systems. The vehicle’s handling characteris-
tics may be affected.
Immediately consult a qualified specialist
workshop which has the necessary special-
ist knowledge and tools to carry out the
work required. Mercedes-Benz recommends
that you use a Mercedes-Benz Service Cen-
tre for this purpose. In particular, work rele-
vant to safety or on safety-related systems
must be carried out at a qualified specialist
workshop.
