Controls in detail Instrument cluster Trip odometer Make sure you are viewing the trip odometer and main odometer in the multifunction display ( page 113). If it is not displayed, press button è or ÿ on the multifunction steering wheel until the trip odometer appears ( page 114). Press and hold the reset button on the instrument cluster ( page 22) until the trip odometer is reset. Tachometer The red marking on the tachometer denotes excessive engine speed. Outside temperature indicator Warning! G ! Avoid driving at excessive engine speeds, as it may result in serious engine damage that is not covered by the Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty. To help protect the engine, the fuel supply is interrupted if the engine is operated within the red marking. The outside temperature indicator is not designed to serve as an ice-warning device and is therefore unsuitable for that purpose. Indicated temperatures just above the freezing point do not guarantee that the road surface is free of ice. The road may still be icy, especially in wooded areas or on bridges. The outside temperature is indicated in the multifunction display ( page 23). For information on how to select the unit of the indicated temperature, i.e. degrees Celsius (°C) or degrees Fahrenheit (°F), see "Selecting temperature display mode" ( page 127). 111
