Workshop Mode, Basic Function - GF82.90-P-9902A
Model all (CAR)
Overview
This document contains information on:
- Switching workshop mode on/off and status display
- Function overview
General
In order to guarantee trouble-free operations on the vehicle during workshop visits, service staff must be able to prevent vehicle functions from being triggered accidentally, remotely or automatically.
With full implementation, the measures required for this are bundled in workshop mode so that activating workshop mode in the vehicle is sufficient for trouble-free operations on the vehicle. At the same time, status messages allow the service personnel to detect at any time whether workshop mode is switched on.
The introduction of workshop mode begins with restriction of the remote functions.
Workshop mode is not available in all vehicles.
Switching workshop mode on/off and status display
Workshop mode is switched on and off via a menu on the instrument cluster. When workshop mode is switched on, an acknowledgeable message is shown on the driver's display. After an ignition cycle, the message is shown again as long as workshop mode has not been switched off.
When workshop mode is switched on, the Mercedes me symbol disappears in the central display.
