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 Maintenance Booklet. This may otherwise
lead to increased wear and damage to the
major assemblies or the vehicle.
A qualified specialist workshop, e.g. an author-
ized Mercedes-Benz Service Center, 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 specified maintenance interval takes only
the normal operation of the vehicle into
account. Under arduous operating conditions or
increased load on the vehicle, maintenance
work must be carried out more frequently, for
example:
R Regular city driving with frequent intermedi-
ate stops
R If the vehicle is primarily used to travel short
distances R
Use in mountainous terrain or on poor road
surfaces
R If the engine is often left idling for long periods
R In racetrack mode
Under these or similar conditions, have, for
example, the air filter, engine oil and oil filter
replaced or changed more frequently. Under
arduous operating conditions, the tires must be
checked more often. Further information can be
obtained at a qualified specialist workshop, e.g. an authorized Mercedes-Benz Service Center.
i In racetrack mode, the vehicle is subject to
higher loads, meaning that additional main-
tenance work is required. If you plan race-
track use, consult a qualified specialist work-
shop first. Mercedes-Benz recommends that
you use an authorized Mercedes-Benz Ser-
vice Center for this purpose.
Driving abroad An extensive Mercedes-Benz Service network is
also available in other countries. You can obtain further information from any authorized
Mercedes-Benz Service Center. Care
