Service interval display
Service events are displayed on the instrument cluster and in the Infotainment system.
Versions and displays can vary as different versions of the instrument cluster and Infotainment system are available.
The service takes place at predefined intervals for vehicles with a fixed oil change service interval.
The service intervals are calculated on an individual basis in vehicles with flexible oil change service interval. 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 an oil change service or inspection is due soon, a service alert will appear the next time the ignition is switched on.
The mileage or time shown corresponds to the maximum mileage or time that can still be driven before the next
service.
Service event
For a scheduled service or a scheduled inspection, an acoustic signal will be given when the ignition is switched on
and a spanner symbol
the following displays:
may be displayed on the instrument cluster display for several seconds together with one of
—Inspection now!
—Oil service now!
—Oil service and inspection now!
Accessing service schedules
You can access the current service schedule when the ignition is switched on, the engine is not running, and the
vehicle is stationary:
1. Touch the Vehicle function button.
2. Select the Status menu item and touch theService function button to display the service information.
Information on the service schedule can also be accessed via the Service menu (→ Service menu).
Resetting the service interval display
If the service interval display was not reset after a service or inspection, it can be reset as follows:
The service interval display can only be reset via the Service menu (→ Service menu).
Do not reset the service interval display between service intervals, otherwise incorrect data may be shown.
If the oil change service interval was reset manually, the service interval display then also changes to a fixed service
interval in vehicles with flexible oil change service.
The service message will go out after a few seconds when the engine is running or you can press the
button on the multifunction steering wheel.
If the 12-volt vehicle battery was disconnected for long periods in vehicles with flexible service, the system
cannot calculate the time at which the next service is due. The information shown in the service interval
display may therefore be incorrect. If this is the case, then please observe the maximum service intervals.
