Mercedes-Benz GL-Class: Service messages
Information on the type of service and service intervals (see separate Service Booklet).
You can obtain further information from an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center or at http://www.mbusa.com (USA only).
The service interval display informs you of the next service due date.
If a service due date has been exceeded, you also hear an acoustic signal.
The multifunction display shows a service message for a few seconds, e.g.
Service A in .. mi
Service A due now
Service A overdue by .. mi
The letter indicates how much time the workshop will require to carry out the service work. The letters displayed range from A for a short service duration to H for a long service duration.
The service interval display does not take into account any periods of time during which the battery is disconnected.
Maintaining the time-dependent service schedule:
► Note down the service due date
displayed
in the multifunction display before
disconnecting the battery.
or
► Subtract the battery disconnection periods
from the service date shown on the display
after reconnecting the battery.
The service interval display does not
provide any information regarding the
engine's oil level. Observe the notes on the
engine oil level.
