2 Answers
Insert the car key into the ignition slot of the Mercedes-Benz R350 and turn it to the OFF position. Locate the maintenance reset button on the dashboard and hold it down. Simultaneously, with your other hand, turn the key to the ON position. Below are specific details about Mercedes-Benz: 1. Background: Mercedes-Benz is a world-renowned German automobile brand, founded in 1900 with headquarters in Stuttgart, by Karl Benz and Gottlieb Daimler. Mercedes-Benz is famous for its high-quality, high-performance automotive products. In addition to premium luxury cars, the company is also one of the world's most famous manufacturers of buses and heavy-duty trucks. Currently, Mercedes-Benz is a division of Daimler AG. 2. Development History: The Mercedes-Benz company was not founded by Mr. Benz alone; it was a collaboration between two automotive giants—the pioneers of automobile invention, Karl Friedrich Benz and Gottlieb Daimler. In 1926, these two companies merged to form Daimler-Benz AG. By this time, Daimler had already passed away, and Karl Benz was 82 years old.
Here's my go-to method for resetting the maintenance light on a Mercedes R350: First, get in the car without starting the engine, then turn the key to the second position (where all dashboard lights illuminate). Next, locate a small wrench-shaped or '0.0' labeled button near the steering wheel and press it a few times until the maintenance menu appears on the screen. Hold the button down for about five seconds until a confirmation prompt pops up on the display before releasing. The maintenance light should now be off. If it doesn't respond, the button location might vary—check the owner's manual's illustrated chapter. After resetting, it's wise to quickly check the oil level and tire pressure to ensure everything's in order before the next service. I've had instances where ignoring the light led to annoying reminder beeps during drives, so now I always reset it immediately after annual oil changes—saves both money and hassle.
