message for a few seconds, e.g.:

Depending on the operating conditions of the vehicle, the remaining time or distance until
the next service due date is displayed.

service. A number or another letter may be
displayed after the letter.

tional maintenance work to be performed. If

this display, you will receive a statement on
the associated costs.

If the ASSYST PLUS service interval dis-
play has been inadvertently reset, this set-
ting can be corrected at a qualified special-
ist workshop.

lead to increased wear and damage to the
major assemblies or the vehicle.

Mercedes-Benz Service Centre, will reset the ASSYST PLUS service interval display after
the service work has been carried out. You
can also obtain further information on main-
tenance work, for example.

normal operation of the vehicle. Service work
will need to be performed more often if the
vehicle is operated under arduous conditions
or increased loads, for example:
R regular city driving with frequent intermedi-
ate stops
R if the vehicle is primarily used to travel
short distances
R for frequent operation in mountainous ter-
rain or on poor road surfaces
R if the engine is often left idling for long peri-
