Practical hints What to do if ...? Messages in the display Warning! The control system shows warning and malfunction messages in the multifunction display. Certain warning and malfunction messages are accompanied by an audible signal. Address these messages accordingly and follow the additional instructions given in this Operator's Manual. Selecting the malfunction memory menu in the control system ( page 144) displays both cleared and uncleared messages. High-priority messages appear in the multifunction display in red color. Certain messages of high priority cannot be cleared from the multifunction display using the reset button ( page 22). Other messages of high priority or messages of less immediate priority can be cleared from the multifunction display using the reset button ( page 22). These are then stored in the malfunction message memory ( page 144). G i Turning the SmartKey in the starter switch to position 2, or pressing the KEYLESS-GO* start/stop button twice causes all lamps as well as the multifunction display to come on. Make sure that they are all in working order before starting your journey. On the pages that follow, you will find a compilation of the most important warning and malfunction messages that may appear in the display. High priority messages appear on a red background. All categories of messages contain important information which should be taken note of and, where a malfunction is indicated, addressed as soon as possible at an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center. Failure to repair condition noted may cause damage not covered by the Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty, or result in property damage or personal injury. Warning!
