The ASSYST PLUS service interval display
does not show any information on the engine oil level. Observe the notes on the engine oil
level (Y page 233).
The multifunction display shows a service mes-
sage for a few seconds, e.g.:
R Service A in XX days
Service A in XX days
R Service A due
Service A due
R Service A overdue by XX days
Service A overdue by XX days
Depending on the operating conditions of the
vehicle, the remaining time or distance until the
next service due date is displayed.
The letter indicates which service is due. A
A
stands for a minor service and B Bfor a major ser-
vice. A number or another letter may be dis-
played after the letter.
Only for certain countries: the position after the
letter A
A or B Bindicates any necessary additional
maintenance work. If you notify a qualified spe-
cialist workshop of this display, you will receive
a statement on the associated costs.
The ASSYST PLUS service interval display does
not take into account any periods of time during which the battery is disconnected.
Maintaining the time-dependent service sched-
ule:
X Note down the service due date displayed in
the multifunction display before disconnect-
ing the battery.
or
X After reconnecting the battery, subtract the
battery disconnection periods from the ser-
vice date shown on the display. Hiding service messages

Resetting the ASSYST PLUS service
interval display !
If the ASSYST PLUS service interval display
has been inadvertently reset, this setting can
be corrected at a qualified specialist work-
shop.
Have service work carried out as described in the Service Booklet. This may otherwise lead
to increased wear and damage to the major
assemblies or the vehicle.
A qualified specialist workshop, e.g. a
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 maintenance
work, for example.
Special service requirements The prescribed service interval is based on nor-
mal 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 intermediate
stops
R if the vehicle is primarily used to travel short
distances
R for frequent operation in mountainous terrain
or on poor road surfaces
R if the engine is often left idling for long periods
In these or similar operating conditions, have,
for example, the air filter, engine oil and oil filter changed more frequently. The tyres must be
checked more frequently if the vehicle is oper-
ated under increased loads. Further informationcan be obtained at a qualified specialist work-
shop, e.g. a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre. ASSYST PLUS
