Should all be described in the owner's manual.

Hi,
That is the code for "B service required in 400 miles". I think it is strange that a salesperson would not know the display code for "service required". I guess the salesperson doesn't drive these cars or even read the manual.

However, I think it is even stranger that they sold you a car without giving it the necessary maintenance.

Yes, the manual explains it in detail.

Thanks for the info. I bought it from a Jaguar dealership so the salesperson wasn't very knowledgeable about the vehicle. One of the contigencies for purchasing the vehicle was that the dealer pays for the 60K service through a reputable Mercedes service center. The 60k service should cover this code right?

I also wanted to enclose a pic of my ML.

Yes. And the Mercedes dealer does the service, the will reset the wrenches (otherwise known as FSS). You can expect to see 1 wrench (the cheaper A service -- basically a glorified oil change) in about 10,000 miles (I think).

Heh heh heh...and here I was thinking that the number represented the amount of dollars you are going to spend on whatever part the double wrench light is hooked up to.

Just hope the double dollar sign light doesn't come on...

I thought the wrenches equated to dollars... I mean how much does the B-service cost 400 something? Its quite a bit of money for what they do IMO.
