Can I reset the Service Indicator?

[Automac29]

I took delivery of a 2006 CLK350 a couple of weeks ago. As part of the purchase, the supplying (non-MB) vehicle dealer carried out a service (oil & filter plus brake pads and fluid) - I presume much like a regular A-Service.

However, despite giving me an itemised receipted bill for the service he failed to reset the on-board service indicator which is now telling me that I need a service!

Unfortunately, as he is 150 miles away from me, I would rather have the indicator re-set locally (Gloucestershire). I presume my local offical MB dealers will want to charge a 'wedge' for this, or may not want to do it unless they have done the service.

Could anyone suggest any options, please?

Google is your friend:


a) Turn ignition key to '1'
b) Press the system selection buttons (left hand edge of steering wheel) until you have the Basic display with mileage or temperature in the display
c) Press the dimming button (on the cluster itself) briefly 3 times and you see the voltage display on the cluster and a ping is heard
d) Turn the ignition key to '2'
e) Press the scroll down button and 'Service indicator' will appear in display
f) Press the dimming button and 'Oil Type' will appear on the cluster
g) Select oil type using +/- buttons and press the scroll up button to confirm.
h) Press and hold the dimming button until 'Service confirmed' appeard
i) Press scroll up until 'Service indicator' appears again
j) Press upper system selection button to finish.
