How to reset the partial odometer of a Mercedes S-Class?

Model: Mercedes Classe S W221, MK 5 - Years 2005-2013
Part: Onboard computer

To reset the partial odometer of a Mercedes S-Class, start by turning on the instrument panel without starting the engine. Use the buttons on the steering wheel to access the onboard computer menu. Navigate through the menu options using the selection buttons, usually arrows or wheels, until you reach the partial odometer screen. Once on this screen, look for the option that allows you to reset the count. When you find the correct option for the reset, select it by holding down the confirm button on the steering wheel. The system will notify you that the partial odometer has been reset and will return to zero. This process is simple and quick, and allows you to accurately monitor the distances traveled from a new reference point. After the reset, verify that the odometer has actually returned to zero. If necessary, repeat the procedure following the steps carefully. This operation is useful for tracking distances on trips or monitoring fuel consumption on specific routes.

We go to the multifunction screen and press "settings": from there we go to press the clock, simply click on daylight saving time, and the clock will change the time for us, without doing anything else. All we want to do is just adjust the time format to 12 or 24 hours, as is customary in the area where we live: for example in Anglo-Saxon countries it is common to set the time to 12 hours, while in the European Union it is normally set to 24 hours.
