Outside temperature indicator (17)

The temperature sensor is located in the front bumper

area. Due to its location, the sensor can be affected by

road or engine heat during idling or slow driving. This

means that the accuracy of the displayed temperature

can only be verified by comparison to a thermometer

placed next to the sensor, not by comparison to external

displays (e.g. bank signs etc.).

Adaption to ambient temperature takes place in steps

and depends on the prevailing driving conditions (stop-

and-go or moderate, constant driving) and amount of

temperature change.

Note:

The unit for the temperature indicator display can be set

in the individual setting menu “INSTRUMENT

CLUSTER” – “TEMP. INDICATOR” on page 121.

Trip odometer (13)

To reset to “0” miles/km:

Activate the instrument cluster if it is not already

activated, see page 100.

Press button è or ÿ on the multifunction

steering wheel repeatedly until the trip odometer

appears if it is not displayed. See page 106.

Press button (1) on the instrument cluster, see page 100.

Tachometer (2)

The red marking on the tachometer denotes excessive

engine speed.

Avoid this engine speed, as it may result in serious

engine damage that is not covered by the

Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.

To help protect the engine, the fuel supply is interrupted

if the engine is operated within the red marking.

Warn ing!

The outside temperature indicator is not designed

to serve as an Ice-Warning Device and is therefore

unsuitable for that purpose. Indicated

temperatures just above the freezing point do not

guarantee that the road surface is free of ice.
