Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Resetting The Service Operations
When one or more operations have been carried out, e.g. front pads have been changed, these operations must be reset to their full service interval.
There are two options for resetting the service operations:
- Legally required service operations - Legally required service operations such as the Statutory vehicle inspection (HU) and the Statutory exhaust test (AU), can only be reset in the "Service" menu.
- Maintenance service operations - All service operations for the purpose of maintenance are reset by means of the reset button of the trip distance counter in the instrument cluster. If the reset button is pressed for longer than ten seconds, the reset mode opens automatically. "Reset?" is displayed in the lower display window.
In the upper display window, the CBS symbol, e.g. for "engine oil service overdue" will be displayed. Press the reset button until the time/distance-dependent displays in the lower display window are replaced with dashes. Reset is no longer possible once more than 80 percent of the interval has expired. A reset lock will be shown in the display with "OK".
