Maintenance
Clearing the maintenance service
indicator message

imately 30 seconds when you switch on

nance service threshold while driving.
You can also clear it yourself.
1Reset button
Press reset button 1 on the
instrument cluster.The maintenance service indicator
message is cleared and the standard
display appears in the multifunction
display (
page 145).
Maintenance service term exceeded
If you have exceeded the suggested
maintenance service term, you will see the
following message in the multifunction
display:
Service A exceeded by XXXXX miles (km)
Service A exceeded by XXX days

Any authorized Mercedes-Benz Center will

iVehicles equipped with FSS (Flexible Ser-
vice S
ystem) only (Canada vehicles, depending
on vehicle production date):

FSS evaluates engine temperature, oil level,
vehicle speed, engine speed, distance driven
and the time elapsed since your last service
and calculates other maintenance service
work required.

The interval between maintenance services
depends on your driving habits. A gentle
driving style, moderate engine speeds and
the avoidance of short-distance trips will
lengthen the interval between services.

394 Practical hints
What to do if …?
When the message Check oil at next re-
fueling
appears while the engine is
running and at operating temperature, the
engine oil level has dropped to
approximately the minimum level.When this occurs, the warning will first
come on intermittently and then stay on if
the oil level drops further.
Visually check for oil leaks. If no obvious oil
leaks are noted, drive to the nearest ser-
vice station where the engine oil should be
topped to the required level with an
approved oil specified in the Factory
Approved Service Products pamphlet.
Display symbolDisplay messagePossible cause/consequencePossible solution
:Check oil level
at next refuelingThe engine oil level has dropped to a
critical level.Check the engine oil level
(
page 317) and add oil as required
(
page 319).
If you must add engine oil frequently,
have the engine checked for possible
leaks.
!The engine oil level warnings should not be
ignored. Extended driving with the symbol dis-
played could result in serious engine damage
that is not covered by the Mercedes-Benz
Limited Warranty.
