Controls in detail
Control system
Vehicle status message memory menu
Use the vehicle status message memory
menu to scan malfunction and warning
messages that may be stored in the
system. Such messages appear in the
multifunction display and are based on
conditions or system status the vehicle’s
system has recorded.
The vehicle status message memory menu
only appears, if messages have been
stored.
̈ Press button è or ÿ repeatedly
until you see the vehicle status mes-
sage memory in the right multifunction
display.
If the vehicle status message memory
menu does not appear, no messages
have been stored.
If conditions have occurred causing status
messages to be recorded, the number of
messages appears in the right multi-
function display:
1 Number of recorded status messages
̈ Press button k or j.
The stored messages will now be
displayed in the order in which they
have occurred. For malfunction and
warning messages, see “Vehicle status
messages in the multifunction display”
(
୴ page 319).
Should the vehicle’s system record any
conditions while driving, the number of
messages will reappear in the multifunc-
tion display when the SmartKey in the
starter switch is turned to position 0 or
removed from the starter switch.
If you switch off the ignition you will delete
the vehicle status message memory ex-
cept for a few high-priority messages. The
control system only deletes these messag-
es when the cause for the messages has
been rectified.
Warning!
G
Malfunction and warning messages are only
indicated for certain systems and are inten-
tionally not very detailed. The malfunction
and warning messages are simply a remind-
er with respect to the operation of certain
systems and do not replace the owner’s
and/or driver’s responsibility to maintain
the vehicle’s operating safety by having all
required maintenance and safety checks
performed on the vehicle and by bringing
the vehicle to an authorized Mercedes-Benz
Center to address the malfunction and
warning messages ( ୴ page 319).
