Warning and information messages
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
The system runs a check on certain components and functions in the vehicle when the ignition is
switched on or while the vehicle is in motion. Malfunctions are indicated by red and yellow warning
symbols with information messages on the instrument cluster display ⇒ Warning and indicator lamp
overview. An acoustic warning is also given in certain cases. The appearance of the information
messages and symbols can vary depending on the version of the instrument cluster.
In addition, a list of current malfunctions can be opened manually. To do so, open the Vehicle
status or Vehicle menu ⇒ Instrument cluster menus.
Priority 1 warning (red)The symbol flashes or lights up (sometimes together with a signal tone).
Do not drive on! Danger. Check the fault and correct the cause. Seek expert assistance if
necessary.Priority 2 warning (yellow)The symbol flashes or lights up (sometimes together with a
signal tone). Malfunctions and insufficient service fluids can damage the vehicle and cause it to
break down. Check the fault as soon as possible. Seek expert assistance if necessary.Information
messageInformation about various procedures within the vehicle.
Depending on the vehicle equipment level, some settings and displays may also appear in
the Infotainment system.
If several warning reports are detected, the symbols will appear for several seconds, one
after another. The symbols will continue to appear until the faults are rectified.
If warning messages about malfunctions are displayed when the ignition is switched on, it
may not be possible to adjust some settings as described, or the information display may appear
differently. If this is the case, take the vehicle to a qualified workshop to have the malfunction
rectified.
Driver Alert System (recommendation for rest breaks)
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
The Driver Alert System informs the
driver if their driving shows signs of
tiredness.
Fig. 18 On the instrument cluster display: Driver Alert System.
Function and operation
The Driver Alert System determines the driving behaviour at the beginning of a journey and uses it
to evaluate the tiredness of the driver. This is compared to the behaviour of the driver while actually
driving. If the system detects that the driver may be tired, an acoustic warning signal will sound and
a message will appear in the instrument cluster display ⇒ Fig. 18. The message in the instrument
cluster display is displayed for about five seconds and may be repeated once. The last displayed
message is saved by the system.
The message on the instrument cluster display can be switched off by pressing the
button on the wiper lever or the button on the multifunction steering
wheel ⇒ Instrument cluster operation. The message can be displayed again on the instrument
cluster display using the multifunction display ⇒ Warning and information messages.
Functional limitations
The driving behaviour can be evaluated only when the speed is above 60 km/h (37 mph) up to
approximately 200 km/h (125 mph).
