When you start the engine after the 12-volt battery has been totally discharged or changed, you may 
find that system settings (time, date, personal convenience settings and programming) have been

Warning and information messages 
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings
The system runs a check on certain components and functions in the vehicle when the ignition is 
switched on or while the vehicle is in motion. Malfunctions are indicated by red and yellow warning 
symbols with information messages on the instrument cluster display Symbols in instrument 
cluster
messages and symbols can vary depending on the version of the instrument cluster. 
In addition, a list of current malfunctions can be opened manually. To open the list, select the 
Vehicle status or Vehicle menu Instrument cluster menus 
Priority 1 warning (red)The symbol flashes or lights up (sometimes together with a signal tone). 
Do not drive on! Danger. Check the fault and correct the cause. Seek expert assistance if 
necessary.Priority 2 warning (yellow)The symbol flashes or lights up (sometimes together with a 
signal tone). Malfunctions and insufficient service fluids can damage the vehicle and cause it to 
break down. Check the fault as soon as possible. Seek expert assistance if necessary.Information 
messageInformation about various vehicle procedures and conditions. 
 
With some equipment levels, some settings and displays may also appear in the Infotainment 
system. 
 
If several warnings are present, the symbols will appear for several seconds, one after another. The 
symbols will continue to appear until the faults are rectified. 
 
If warning messages about malfunctions are displayed when the ignition is switched on, it may not 
be possible to adjust some settings as described, or the information display may appear differently. 
If this is the case, take the vehicle to a qualified workshop to have the malfunctions rectified.  

Technical progress has made it possible to considerably reduce servicing requirements. An oil change 
service must only be carried out when required by the vehicle. The individual conditions in which the 
vehicle is used and the driver's personal driving style are taken into account. The service reminder is 
displayed 30 days before the service is due. The distance is rounded to the nearest 100 km and the 
remaining time is rounded to full days. 
Service alert 
If a service or inspection is due soon, a service alert will appear the next time the ignition is switched 
on. 
The number of kilometres or amount of time shown correspond to the maximum number of 
kilometres or maximum time that can still be driven before the next service. 
Service event 
In the event of a due service or a due inspection, a signal tone will be given when the ignition is 
switched on and the spanner symbol will be displayed for several seconds on the instrument 
cluster display. One of the following displays will also appear Fig. 19 
Inspection now!
