Following a completed A or B service the Mercedes-Benz 
Center sets the counter mileage to 10 000 miles 
(Canada: 15 000 km).
The counter can also be set by any individual. To do so:
Turn the electronic key in starter switch to position 1 
or 2.
To call up the trip odometer and main odometer, press 
button è or ÿ on the multifunction steering 
wheel until the display appears. See page 106.
Press button j or k until the FSS indicator 
appears.
Press the reset knob on the instrument cluster, see 
page 96, for approximately 4 seconds.The multifunction display will show the question: 
“DO YOU WANT TO RESET SERVICE INTERVAL? – 
CONFIRM BY PRESSING R”
Press the reset knob on the instrument cluster again for 
approximately 4 seconds to reset the service indicator.
The new service indicator is displayed with the reset 
distance of 10 000 miles (Canada 15 000 km).
If the FSS counter was inadvertently reset, have a 
Mercedes-Benz Center correct it.
However you choose to set your reference numbers, the 
scheduled services as posted in the Service Booklet 
must be followed to properly care for your vehicle.
