Controls in detail Instrument cluster Trip odometer Make sure you are viewing the trip odometer and main odometer in the multifunction display ( page 121). If it is not displayed, press button è or ÿ on the multifunction steering wheel until the trip odometer appears ( page 122). Press and hold the reset button in the instrument cluster ( page 117) until the trip odometer is reset. Tachometer The red marking on the tachometer ( page 24) 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. 119
