A140 Showing Spanner & Clock & -8

[Adamerc]

My guess its saying that car is due for service....I don't know what -8 means ..yesterday car was showing -6 today it has started shoing -8...could anyone explain what these numbers mean

If it's like my wife's Smart car it means it's 8 day's overdue.

Why it showed -6 yesterday, will depend what time ofr day it was serviced I guess.

Have I any risk if I drive car as is for some more days...
Is it easy to reset service indicator
If yes...

Any ideas how to do it?

Drive it too long an you may invalidate any warranty. I'd just book it in for a service next week. Continue to drive it normally in the meantime.

Lofty's A Class pages tell you how to reset the clock.

You do it with the temp / mileage button - press this, then that, blink twice, whistle and press again.
