ASSYST PLUS service interval display
Function of the ASSYST PLUS service interval dis-
play
The ASSYST PLUS service interval display on the instrument display informs you of the time or dis-tance remaining before the next service due date.
You can hide this service display using the back button G on the steering wheel.
Depending on how the vehicle is used, the
ASSYST PLUS service interval display may shorten
the service interval, e.g. in the following cases:
= Mainly short-distance driving
= When the engine is osen les idling for long
periods
= In the event of frequent cold start phases
Mercedes-Benz recommends avoiding such oper-
ating conditions.
You can obtain information concerning the servic-
ing of your vehicle from a qualiNed specialist
workshop, e.g. an authorized Mercedes-Benz Cen- ter.
Displaying the service due date
On-board computer:

The next service due date is displayed.
To exit the display: press the back button

Information on regular maintenance work
*NOTE Premature wear through failure to
observe service due dates
Maintenance work which is not carried out at
the right time or incompletely can lead to
increased wear and damage to the vehicle.
Adhere to the prescribed service inter- vals.Always have the prescribed maintenance
work carried out at a qualiNed specialist
workshop.
Notes on special service requirements
The prescribed service interval is based on nor-
mal operation of the vehicle. Have the mainte-
nance work carried out more osen than prescri-
bed if operating conditions are diPcult or the
vehicle is subject to increased stress.
The ASSYST PLUS service interval display is only an aid. It is the responsibility of the driver of the vehicle to have maintenance work carried out
more osen than prescribed due to actual operat-
ing conditions and/or stresses.
Examples of arduous operating conditions:
= Regular city driving with frequent intermediate
stops
= Mainly short-distance driving
= Frequent operation in mountainous terrain or
on poor road surfaces
Maintenance and care281

=When the engine is osen les idling for long
periods
= Operation in particularly dusty conditions
and/or if air-recirculation mode is frequently
used
In these or similar operating conditions, have the
interior air Nlter, air Nlter, engine oil and oil Nlter,
for example, changed more frequently. If subject
to increased stress, check the tires more. Further
information can be obtained at a qualiNed special-
ist workshop.
Battery disconnection periods
The ASSYST PLUS service interval display can cal-
culate the service due date only when the battery is connected.
Display and note down the service due date
on the instrument display before disconnect-
ing the battery (  page 281).Maintenance Management
Notes about Maintenance Management
If the Maintenance Management service is activa-
ted, relevant data is automatically transferred to
the Mercedes-Benz customer center.
The customer center transmits the data to the
service partner that you have entered on the Mercedes me website at: http://
www.mercedes.me. You will then receive individ-
ual recommendations regarding the maintenance of your vehicle.
\bThe calculation of the optimal transmission
time of the maintenance request to the service partner is subject to technical limita-
tions that may cause the maintenance recom-
mendation to be perceived as too early or too
late or not to be made at all. In this case, you
can conveniently arrange a maintenance
appointment with the customer center via the
maintenance reminder in the multimedia sys-
tem.\bMaintenance Management and the mainte-
nance reminder in the multimedia system are not available in every country. Contact anauthorized Mercedes-Benz Center to Nnd out
whether this function is available in your coun-
try.
Data transferred when using Maintenance Man-
agement
When the service is activated, relevant data is
automatically transferred to determine the
required scope of maintenance as well as mal-
function detection and malfunction rectiNcation.
Details on data transfer can be found in the data protection information for the Mercedes me con-
nect services. These can be found at: https://
www.mercedes.me under "My Mercedes me
account", "Terms of use".
\bMaintenance Management and the mainte-
nance reminder in the multimedia system are not available in every country.
Telediagnosis
Notes about Telediagnosis
\bThis service is not available in all countries.282Maintenance and care

The vehicle can detect if certain wear parts need
to be replaced or if malfunctions have occurred in
vehicle systems. If the Telediagnosis service is activated, relevant data is automatically transmit-
ted to the manufacturer. If fault conditions are
detected by the vehicle system self-diagnosis, the system transmits recommendations for action to
the Mercedes-Benz customer center depending on the fault detected. The customer center trans-
mits the data to the service partner that you have entered on the Mercedes me website at: http://
www.mercedes.me.
For selected faults, the notiNcation that a mal-
function has been detected may appear in the multimedia system with a request to contact the
Mercedes-Benz customer center. From this mes- sage, a call can be made directly to the customercenter for assistance.\bThe transmission of a notiNcation to the multi-
media system depends on the country, vehi- cle model and equipment and requires a fast
data connection, over which the service pro-
vider has no inOuence.\bReliable fault detection is subject to technical
limitations. Therefore, only a limited selectionof faults can be detected and recommenda-tions for action transmitted to the customer
center and the service partners. Mercedes- Benz AG is continuously working on theexpansion of this service. The fault detection
depends on the country, vehicle model and equipment.
Data transferred when using Telediagnostics
