Method to turn off the S display on a Mercedes-Benz: 1. Press the one-touch start button below the steering wheel in the driver's compartment to start the vehicle's engine; 2. Locate the driving mode switch button on the center console; 3. Press the driving mode switch button to switch to Comfort mode. Mercedes-Benz is a German luxury car brand, and its SUV models include the GLA, GLB, GLC, EQC, GLE, GLS, and G-Class. Taking the Mercedes-Benz G-Class as an example, it is one of the world's most powerful all-terrain off-road vehicles, with body dimensions of 4668mm in length, 1774mm in width, and 1952mm in height.
I also struggled with this issue when driving my friend's Mercedes. The 'S' on the dashboard stands for Sport mode, which gives you aggressive acceleration but higher fuel consumption. Turning it off is simple: look around the gear shift for a button or dial labeled with mode selection, usually marked 'MODE' or similar. Press or turn it to switch to 'C' (Comfort) or 'E' (Economy) mode, and the 'S' icon will disappear. Why turn it off? Using Sport mode for daily city commutes is too fuel-intensive, the car lurches forward with every press of the accelerator, and reversing can be jumpy. I usually switch to Comfort mode for a quieter and more economical ride, only occasionally using 'S' for some excitement on long trips. After switching, check the dashboard display to confirm the change. Button locations may vary slightly between models, so consult the manual for precise instructions—don't worry, it's not complicated.
