Vehicle Status Messages In The Multifunction Display - Mercedes-Benz 2008 M-Class Operator's Manual

Vehicle status messages in the
multifunction display
Warning and malfunction messages
appear in the multifunction display located
in the instrument cluster.
Certain warning and malfunction messag-
es are accompanied by an audible signal.
Address these messages accordingly and
follow the additional instructions given in
this Operator's Manual.
Selecting the vehicle status message
memory menu in the control system
( page 162) displays both cleared and
uncleared messages.
High-priority messages appear in the
multifunction display in red color.
Certain messages of high priority cannot
be cleared from the multifunction display
using the reset button ( page 145) or
button j, k, ÿ, or è on the
multifunction steering wheel.
Other messages of high priority and mes-
sages of less immediate priority can be
cleared from the multifunction display
using the reset button ( page 145) or
button j, k, ÿ, or è on the
multifunction steering wheel. They are
then stored in the vehicle status message
memory ( page 162). Remember that
clearing a message will only make the mes-
sage disappear. Clearing a message will
not correct the condition that caused the
message to appear.
