Resetting the service indicator
In the event that the service on your vehi-
cle is not carried out by an authorized

can reset the service indicator yourself.
̈ Switch ignition on.
The standard display of the control sys-
tem appears (

̈ Press button k or j on the mul-
tifunction steering wheel until the FSS
indicator appears in the multifunction

i
If the vehicle battery is disconnected,
the days of disconnection will not be in-
cluded in the count shown by the ser-
vice indicator. To arrive at the true
service deadline, you will need to sub-
tract these days from the days shown
in the service indicator.
Do not confuse the service indicator
with the engine oil level indicator
:.
i
If the service indicator was inadvertent-
ly reset, have a Mercedes-Benz Light
Truck Center correct it.
Only reset if the proper service has
been performed. Resetting the system
without performing proper service as
called for by the FSS will cause the FSS
to incorrectly determine the next ser-
vice interval which will result in engine
damage not covered by the Mer-
cedes-Benz Limited Warranty.
