No further messages can be displayed if the instrument cluster and/or the multi-function display fails.
This means that you will not see information about the driving situation, such as the speed, outside temperature, warning/indicator lamps, display messages or system failures. The vehicle's handling characteristics may be affected. Adjust your driving style and speed accordingly.
Immediately consult a qualified specialist workshop which has the necessary specialist knowledge and tools to carry out the work required. Mercedes-Benz recommends that you use a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre for this purpose. In particular, work relevant to safety or on safety-related systems must be carried out at a qualified specialist workshop.

Coolant temperature gauge
The coolant temperature gauge is in the instrument cluster on the left-hand side. Under normal operating conditions and with the specified concentration of antifreeze/corrosion inhibitor, the coolant temperature may rise to 120 
Resetting the trip meter
You can find the "reset values" function in the Trip menu of the on-board computer more.
Rev counter
The red band in the rev counter indicates the engine's overrevving range. The fuel supply is interrupted to protect the engine when the red band is reached.
 | |
|
Do not drive in the overrevving range. Doing so will damage the engine.
|
 | Environmental note |
|
Avoid driving at high engine speeds, as this increases your vehicle's consumption unnecessarily and pollutes the environment through increased emissions.
|
Outside temperature display
| Risk of accident |
|
The road surface may be icy, especially in wooded areas or on bridges, even if temperatures are just above freezing point. The vehicle could skid if you fail to adapt your driving style. You should therefore always adapt your driving style and speed to suit the weather conditions.
|
The outside temperature display is located at the bottom of the instrument cluster on the left-hand side. There is a short delay before a change in outside temperature is displayed.
Fuel gauge
The fuel gauge is in the instrument cluster on the left-hand side. When the level of fuel has fallen into the reserve range, the yellow segment display for the fuel tank lights up.
